Safety
Always keep in mind that on your CS you do not have the safety devices of
a motor vehicle, such as bodywork, ABS or airbag. Therefore, always ride
carefully and respect other traffic participants.
Never ride under the influence of drugs, medication, alcohol or when you
are tired. Do not ride without having both hands on the handlebar.
Observe the legal regulations concerning cycling with transportation bikes
and/or EPACs off public roads. These regulations differ in the different
countries.
Respect nature when riding through the forest and meadows.
Be sure to use your bike only on signposted, well maintained trails and
hard-surface roads.
Keep in mind that you travel fast and quietly. Do not startle pedestrians or
other cyclists. Always make others aware of your presence well ahead of
time and by ringing your bell (Fig. 2) or slow down to avoid accidents.
