Safety Tips for Bicyclists and Pedestrians
- Wear bright colors. Increase your visibility and use bike lights/reflectors.
- See and be seen. Make eye contact with drivers when crossing streets.
- Be predictable. Cross streets where it is legal to do so.
- Stop! Look left, right, and left for traffic.
- Be prepared for the unexpected.
Bicyclists: Wear a helmet when biking. If a rider or passenger is under 16, they must wear a helmet that is properly fitted that securely fastens to the passenger’s head by a strap. Ride on the right side of the road, with the flow of traffic. Use bike lanes when available. Use hand signals when turning and obey all traffic signs and signals.
Walkers and Runners: Always cross the street at corners or crosswalks. Walk or run on the far left off the side of the road, facing traffic. Use sidewalks when available. Pay attention. Constantly look and listen for vehicles.
