For motorcycle operators:

·         Stay out of blind spots! Make sure other drivers see you.

·         Be alert at intersections. Make eye contact with other drivers/riders before making your move.

·         Protect yourself with the right gear and an approved motorcycle helmet.

·         When it comes to other drivers, your speed can be easily misjudged.

·         Ride defensively and make every effort to enhance your visibility.

·         Be aware of what is going on behind you to avoid deadly rear end collisions.

·         Showing off and speeding do not pay off.

·         Sharing the road is one of the keys to having other road users respect you as a motorcyclist.

For drivers of other vehicles:

·         Share the road - look twice for motorcyclists at intersections or when changing lanes.

·         Never underestimate the speed of a motorcycle. Their size makes their speed deceptive.
