Pedal Power: A Legal Guide for Oregon CyclistsThis book is a collection of information about bicycles and the law in Oregon. The material is collected in sections relating to laws, with explanatory articles about several areas. Its purpose is to provide bicyclists with more knowledge about the laws of the roadway. Published by the Bicycle Transportation Alliance. Download the pdf file for this booklet (updated February 2010). Self-Initiated Complaints: A GuideBicyclists are allowed to bring charges against other road users who have broken the law. While we don't recommend this for everyday infractions, if you've been injured by a seriously negligent driver, check out the legal guide written by Ray Thomas, or a version of the advice written for the lay person. Read about a fellow cyclist who went through the process successfully. And read about another success story.
