BEING SEEN
Many motorcycle accidents are caused by car drivers
who do not see motorcycle riders on the road
Therefore you need to follow these
guidelines:
Wear bright clothing to increase visibility.
Bright orange, yellow or green jackets or vests
and a brightly colored helmet can help others
see you.
Always use turn signals when you are planning
to turn or merge to main roads, and turn it off
after you have made your turn.
Flash brake lights whenever you are going to
slow down quickly or where others may not
expect you are going to slow down.
Stay out of blind spots of other motorists.
When you come to an intersection, move to the
portion of your lane that will bring you into
another drivers field of sight at the earliest
possible moment.
HOW TO KEEP YOUR MOTORCYCLE SAFE
The equilibrium and stability of your motorcycle are
affected by the manner in which you load it. It is very
important that you do not install accessories that
change the design and concept of the motorcycle.
Doing so could alter the safety of your motorcycle.
LOADING & CARRYING PASSENGERS
You should avoid carrying passengers or large loads
until you have gained sufficient experience riding
alone. Extra weight changes handling, stability, braking
performance, turns, acceleration and deceleration.
The load you carry on the motorcycle has an important
effect on your safety, as well as the life of the
motorcycle; therefore, apart from driver and
passenger, it is advised to keep load to a minimum. If
you decide to carry any load, take the following into
