Always make a pre-ride inspection (page
) before you start the engine. You
may prevent an accident or equipment
damage.
Many automobile/motorcycle accidents
happen because the automobile driver
does not ‘‘see’’ the motorcyclist.
Make yourself conspicuous to help avoid
the accident that wasn’t your fault:
Wear bright or reflective clothing.
Don’t ride in another motorist’s ‘‘blind
spot.’’
Obeyallnationalandlocallawsand
regulations.
Excessive speed is a factor in many
accidents. Obey the speed limits, and
NEVER travel faster than conditions
warrant.
Signal before you make a turn or lane
change. Your size and maneuverability
can surprise other motorists.
Many accidents involve inexperienced
riders. Most countries require a special
motorcycle riding test or license. Make
sure you are qualified before you ride.
NEVER lend your motorcycle to an
inexperienced rider.
