All of this is great, but given how lax traffic enforcement is in general in MA, it's really hard to imagine the 4 ft buffer rule actually being enforced except after an accident has already happened.

It’s the law now, and will be a part of driver’s education curriculum. It’s something. It’s not new infrastructure.

>level 1TheEmpressIsIn · 6 hr. agoalways good to see attention brought to the issue, but why pass more laws when the once we currently have are not enforced? speeding, tailgating, stop sign/red light running are rampant in my area. i see it every time i drive, but i rarely see anyone stopped.

It's like Move Over for pedestrians and cyclists. We should all be doing this already without having to have a law; but I guess a lot of people don't think about spacing.
