5 WAYS TO AVOID A MOTORCYCLE CRASH Riders AND Drivers Need These Tips!
Tip No. 1: Don’t share lanes. Cars and motorcycles can technically share the same lane and drive side by side, but this is a recipe for disaster. It’s far too easy for a driver to forget the bike is there or drift slightly and hit them. If you’re a motorcycle rider, avoid sharing lanes with cars. Stay in front of or behind them and leave plenty of space between you. If you’re a driver and a bike tries to share your lane, change lanes to give them their own space. Tip No. 2: If you’re driving, treat motorcycles just like you treat cars. A motorcycle is considered a full vehicle. It may be smaller and more
agile, but it has the same rights, responsibilities, and privileges as any other vehicle on the road. While driving, give motorcycles just as much space and respect as you would give cars. Don’t crowd them. Tip No. 3: If you’re riding a motorcycle, assume other drivers don’t see you. Always drive defensively and carefully. Avoid hanging out in the blind spots of cars in adjacent lanes and position yourself in a way that makes it extremely obvious you’re sharing the road. Tip No. 4: Avoid hitting (or making) road hazards. A cardboard box on the road won’t bother a car — but a biker faced with the same hazard could end up in a deadly crash. If you’re on a motorcycle, keep a sharp eye out for debris like tire pieces, branches, or stray objects. If you’re driving, secure any items in the bed of your pickup, clean up after changing a tire, and avoid tossing trash out your windows. Tip No. 5: Be extra vigilant at railway crossings . As a rider, be ready to hop off your bike if you get stuck between railway tracks. As a driver, when you approach a railway crossing, look for bikers who may be stuck and consider stopping your car (with hazard lights on) to help them move to safety.
