May is National Bicycle Safety Month. Here are tips to keep you safe!
For bicyclists:
1. Safety in numbers! ๐ฒ ๐ฒ ๐ฒ ๐ฒ Studies show that drivers are MORE careful when they see more cyclists on the road. If you can, ride in a group.
2. Protect your noggin! When riding a bicycle, always wear a helmet.
For vehicles:
1. If you see a cyclist, slow down! Bicyclists are most often killed by drivers who strike them with the front of their vehicles at high speeds. Avoid tragedy by:
๐ Slowing down
๐ Buckling up
๐ Driving sober
๐ Not driving distracted
2. Make room! When you pass a bicycle, give them three or more feet of space.
