PA Senate PAsses safe PAssing

Too much with the PA joke? Sorry. Anyway…

Big news today out of Pennsylvania. The PA Senate passed House Bill 170, the Safe Passing Act by a vote of 45 to 5. The bill will now go to Governor Corbett’s desk for his signature.

Read more about who voted for and against the measure at the blog of the Bicycle Coalition of Greater Philadelphia.
