This study analyzes the influence of several site characteristics on the operational behavior of motorists when passing bicyclists on wider outside through lanes. More than 2000 videotaped passing events were analyzed. Several measures of effectiveness were used in this analysis, including: lateral separation between the motor vehicle and bicyclist; motor vehicle shift to the inside lane; motor vehicle outside through lane usage; and motor vehicle speeds before, during and after passing bicyclists.
