With warmer weather, more people will be out enjoying the sunshine, including bicyclists. It’s important that drivers and cyclists properly share the road.
Please remember the following safety tips:
- If riding with someone else, cyclists ride side-by-side on the road to remain more visible to drivers and create a safety buffer in traffic.
- Make sure your bike is in good working condition, and wear a helmet.
- Drivers, please provide a 3-foot buffer between your vehicle and the cyclist.
- Never use a bike lane to pass other vehicles or as a parking space.
- Watch for cyclists in low-light conditions.
