UNDERSTANDING RISK ON THE ROAD
ate the vehicle unless you are alert and
completely sober. Even if your blood
alcohol level is not over the legal limit,
your judgment and skills are impaired
by any alcohol consumption.
You must be physically able to operate
all controls, turn the handlebar through
the full range of steering, mount and
dismount, and monitor your surround-
ings to operate the vehicle.
Passengers also need to be alert,
sober and physically able to maintain
their posture, hold on and react appro-
priately to curves, bumps, acceleration
and stops.
Vehicle Condition
Keep your vehicle in good condition.
Do pre-operation checks and perform
regular maintenance. Watch for any
messages on the multifunction gauge
cluster when you start the vehicle, and
address any problems before you ride.
Road and Weather
Conditions
Roads with heavy traffic, poor visibility
or poor traction surfaces increase your
risk. Choose routes that are appropri-
ate for your skill level and the level of
risk you are willing to accept.
