Local police will still be prioritizing safety when it comes to the general use of the bikes as well as putting education before enforcement.“We want people to be able to be on the trail, whether you’re on a bicycle, whether you’re walking a dog or just going for a walk with a friend,” said Normal police officer Brad Park, “all we want is for everyone to be safe.”The law will go into effect January 1, 2027.</div></body>
