   had time to correct. Provides that these entities and public employees

   create  liability  for any public entity for the failure to remedy any

   motor  vehicle  even  though  it may be hazardous to a person riding a

   standard  for  bicyclists.   Amends   the   Local   Governmental   and      
   Governmental  Employees  Tort  Immunity  Act.  Provides  that  a local      
   public entity or  a public employee is not liable for any injury to  a      
   bicyclist if the liability is based on the existence of a condition of      
   a segment or portion of a street or highway that has been improved for      
   bicycle  use  unless  the  local  public  entity or public employee is      
   guilty of  willful  and  wanton  misconduct  proximately  causing  the      
   injury.  Effective immediately.
