Riding to right of white line

06-15-2004, 06:59 AM

In the area where I live it is sometimes safer to ride to the right of the
white line on the berm of the road. Somewhere I read that since bikers have
the same responsibilities as cars that to ride to the right of the line is
breaking the law. If someone hit me, they could claim I was riding
illegally. I was wondering what the situation is. I live in Pennsylvania,
and I have a feeling the rules differ from state to state. Sometimes it is
dangerous to ride on the side because of all the junk and other stuff that
is located there.

Thanks
