<\/h2>\nMotorcycle Safety Tips<\/h2>\n\n- Never, ever, ever drink and drive<\/strong>. Even a little bit of a drink can impair your driving<\/li>\n
- Make sure your motorcycle is in good condition<\/strong> – check brakes & oil regularly, that all lights work, and that you have correct tire pressure and good tires<\/li>\n
- When you drive make sure you are not hungry, tired, or thirsty. Even these things can distract you from being as safe as possible<\/li>\n
- If you drive at night give your eyes time to adjust to the dark <\/strong>after stepping out of a well lit place before driving<\/li>\n
- Remember, never, ever assume another drivers can see you<\/strong>. Assume you are invisible to car drivers.<\/li>\n
- Be aware of a car’s blind spot<\/strong> and try not to ride in it for long<\/li>\n
- Use your mirrors to check behind you but remember that you also have a blind spot – turn your head and look<\/strong>!<\/li>\n
- Keep your eyes moving<\/strong> – never have them fixed on one spot<\/li>\n
- Always look where you want the bike to go<\/strong>… if you see something on the road, do not stare at it. Instead look at the path you want the motorcycle to go.<\/li>\n
- Give yourself time to brake<\/strong>.\u00a0 Only drive as fast as you can brake. If you can’t see ahead then slow down!<\/li>\n
- Always use your brakes<\/strong>! You can engine brake, but your brake lights will not go on – use your foot or hand brake so the vehicles behind you know you are slowing down!<\/li>\n
- When you are riding in a group always ride your own ride<\/strong>! Go as fast or as slow as YOU are comfortable with.<\/li>\n
- Wear ALL your gear ALL THE TIME<\/strong>!\u00a0 Even if you are going to drive for 5 minutes, if you are on a road you should wear all your gear<\/li>\n
- When you turn, start on the outside of the turn, and in the turn be on the inside. End on the outside again.<\/li>\n
- Use your blinkers<\/strong>! They are there for a reason.<\/li>\n
- When you turn off the motorcycle at the end of your trip, use the kill switch<\/strong>. That way, when you need to use it in an emergency it will be a natural reflex.<\/li>\n
- When you start feeling comfortable on a motorcycle is when your chance of having an accident increase<\/strong>. Always remember that you must be 100% aware to avoid accidents!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
