Teach children the following bicycle and motorbike safety rules:
- Wear a bicycle or motorcycle helmet on every ride. Check to see if your helmet should have a safety certification.
- Ride so drivers and cyclists can see you.
- Look both ways for oncoming vehicles before turning or crossing a street. Go only when it is clear.
- Watch out for potholes, cracks, rocks, wet leaves, storm grates, railroad tracks or anything that could make you lose control of your bike.
- Make sure your bike fits your height, weight and age.
- Check brakes before riding.
- Bikers should ride behind one another and with the flow of traffic.
