Safety Tips Everyone Can Follow

Please remember that car drivers, not motorcyclists, are responsible for more than two-thirds of motorcycle-car crashes. However, avoiding accidents on the road should be everyone's priority.

In addition, a motorcycle is not easy to spot because of its smaller profile, and usually drivers are conditioned to look for other vehicles on the road and not motorcyclists.

Drivers must remember that motorcyclists have the same privileges of other drivers and therefore must give motorcyclists a full lane of travel.

Motorcyclists should use headlights while riding on the highway, and use high beams rather than low beams and although not required in Texas, motorcyclists should take additional steps and wear protective head gear in the event of an accident.

Drivers and motorcyclist should remember that neither one has a safe place to drive on the road. Both should be attentive and aware of their surroundings to avoid accidents.
