Existing law imposes various rules relating to when and where pedestrians can enter a roadway, a violation of which is a criminal infraction. AB 1909 and AB 2147 prohibit a peace officer from stopping a pedestrian for specified traffic infractions unless a reasonably careful person would realize there is an immediate danger of collision with a moving vehicle or other device moving exclusively by human power. Law enforcement agencies should ensure that these legal changes are incorporated into administrative policies and communicated to the agency’s peace officers.
(AB 1909 and AB 2147 amend various sections of Division 11 of the Vehicle Code.)
