Bicycles are classified as 'motor vehicles'. Although most bicycles do not come equipped with a motor, think of yourself as the motor. Also, people on bicycles are responsible for following all of the same traffic laws as other motorized vehicles (i.e. cars, trucks, motorcycles, etc.). You can be sited by a traffic officer for not obeying the traffic rules while riding a bicycle. (Consult your local police department for the specific bicycle road rules in your area.)
