Bicycle Law Information
PENNSYLVANIA BICYCLE HELMET LAW Pennsylvania law requires all children under the age
of 12 to wear an approved bicycle helmet. These helmets should
meet ANSI, SNELL, ASTM
or any other nationally recognized certification standard. The
law excludes operators of three-wheeled,
pedal-driven vehicles with a main driving wheel of 20 inches in
diameter or less and primarily designed for children six (6) years
of age or younger. Always operate your bicycle traveling with the flow of traffic rather than against it. The Towamencin Police Department provides bicycle safety programs at schools for various grade levels in our community. We also conduct annual "Bike Rodeos" at these schools as well. The Towamencin Township Police Department also provides a free bicycle registration program for township residents. Bicycle registrations may be obtained at the police department office during normal business hours.
