1,Assume drivers can't see you:Ride assuming that you and your motorcycle are totally invisible.That means you must never assume that drivers can see you.The odds are, they cannot so don't believe it yourself and always have an out for dangerous traffic situations.Motorcycle safety depends on you.

2, Maintain Safe Spacing:Leave plenty of space in front and back and to the sides from all other vehicles.Be an Island.Stay away from traffic as much as possible.This gives you more visibility and more time to react to situations.

 

3,Anticipate Trouble: Anticipate trouble situations and know when to do when you see them.Analyze what vehicles are doing and try to predict the outcome.Then make sure you're ready to avoid a bad traffic situation.

 

4,Beware of Oncoming Left Turners:Beware of oncoming motorists turning left in front of you at intersections.This is the leading cause of deaths for motorcycle riders.Slow down before you enter an intersection.Have an escape route planned.Stay visiable and alert.Don't travel to close to cars in front of you.Position yourself so you can be seen by the left turner.

 

5,Ride your own way:Don't try to keep up with your friends who may be more experienced.Know your personnel limitiations.Know your bike like a horse.Don't let it drive you.You drive it.

 

6,Watch out for curves:Beware of taking curves you do not know especailly at night.In the spring beware of sand that has not been swept up and in the fall for leaves that are wet and slippery.

 

7,Don't give in to Road Rage:Don't give in to road rage and try to get even.Remember you have NO protection should a car turn hostile.It's best to back off and cool down from the incident..There are many vehicle drivers who don't care that your on a bike.Their emotions rule and your the loser in most cases.

 

8,Down Tailgate:If someone is tailgating you either speed up to more open space or let them pass.Also don't tailgate the vehicle in front of you.Drivers become nervous and emotions take over.

 

9,Don't be blinded by sunglare.Where protective glasses with the proper color shade.At dusk there are yellow tinted glasses that give you more daylight until dark.

 

10,Try not to ride at night:Riding late on saturday evening and early sunday morning is when there are more drunk drivers out there.It is wise to not Drink and Ride or going bar hopping.Your asking for trouble.Motorcycles are fun but very danagerous.Heed the warnings and live to Ride another day.Take the keys from a friend and lock the ignition and get him away from the bike.To many bikers thing they are invinsible especially when after having a few drinks.

 

Live to Ride another day and remember the rules of Riding.No alcohol drinking when riding, be alert, know your surrounings and you will live to ride another day.Good Luck and safe riding.
