That sounds like a blatant violation of one's fundamental right to mobility. I work in a business park which is linked to the coast via 55mph Palomar Airport Road, which fortunately has a decent Class II bike lane on each side.
What are the restrictions on pedestrians?
What about situations in which there is no reasonable alternate route? Do they provide bike lanes or paths parallel to such roads?
Such a law would be a huge problem in San Diego County, where neighborhoods are linked only by prime arterials and freeways.
