What conduct is prohibited when driving near a person riding a bicycle on the highway or shoulder?
Correct answer: Steering unreasonably close to or toward the rider.
Why
Do not steer unreasonably close to or toward a bicyclist, including one using a shoulder. The Iowa manual advises a full lane change when passing, then returning only after the bicycle is visible in the mirror. Wait for a safe lawful opportunity if that room is unavailable. The cited Iowa statute does not supply a universal three-foot numerical clearance.
