It is usually the responsibility of the homeowner if a person pulls into a driveway and runs over a bicycle. The homeowner's insurance might also pay for this accident. It might be the driver's fault if the bicycle was not in the driveway at the time or the driver was drinking.

Regardless of law, it is imperative to operate a bicycle in the manner that promotes your and others' safety. Often, that means the roadway; occasionally, that means the sidewalk.
