AI Summary
This bill allows motorcyclists to use the right breakdown lane or left access lane, or split travel lanes, in specific situations where traffic is moving at 10 miles per hour or less. Motorcyclists can travel at a speed up to 25 miles per hour in these lanes, but must yield to any disabled or emergency vehicles already occupying the lanes. The bill amends existing Massachusetts state law to provide these new allowances for motorcyclists.
