Cycling Sense
Bicycles are vehicles and cyclists have the same rights and duties as motorists!
Follow the rules of the road...
- stop at all stop signs and red lights
- cycle on the right side of the road
- ride on the road, not the sidewalk
- use proper lighting when riding at night
- use proper hand signaling when turning and stopping
- remember to wear a helmet (it's the law for cyclists under the age of 18)
Wait there's more...
- be predictable in traffic - ride in a straight line
- ride at least 1 meter from the curb
- give pedestrians the right of way
- always shoulder check when turning
- ride defensively
