Ask the Mountlake Terrace Cop: Bicycle safety

Mountlake Terrace Police Sgt. Pat Lowe answers your public safety questions. This week: What are the rules regarding bicycle vs. motor vehicle right-of-way, especially along the Interurban Trail through Mountlake Terrace?

  1. I’ve only ridden on the Interurban trail one time, but when I did, some years ago, I realized that as a driver, I had never previously noticed those bike crossings. And as a rider that day, the change from trail to road was rather unexpected. Maybe these are more well marked now, but if not, it would be wonderful to have clear signage for the “intersections”.
