SR 50
Always observe posted and statutory
speed limits, but do not assume that you
can ride as fast as the speed limit under
all road conditions. Slowing down a little
can greatly increase your safety under all
road conditions.
Do not ride your vehicle off road.
Do not tamper with the muffler system or
the emissions control system of your vehicle.
This is not only bad for the environment,
it can subject you to serious penalties.
CLOTHING
Before riding your vehicle, ensure that
your riding gear is in good condition. To
be effective, your helmet must fit properly,
and the visor or other eye protection must
be clean.
Both research and experience have shown
that drivers of other vehicles often do not see
vehicles or riders. In order to make yourself
more conspicuous to these drivers, wear
bright reflective clothing, such as a reflective
vest, or clothing with reflective sections sewn
into the jacket, pants and gloves. Be
particular aware of approaching automobiles
and trucks that might be trying to turn left in
front of you.
Many vehicle accidents are caused by an
opposing automobile driver making a left
turn without warning in front of the vehicle.
Inevitably, the driver will look right at you,
and yet swear that they did not see you
before they turned directly into your path.
Ride alert!
Wear protective clothing, preferably in light
and/or reflecting colours. In this way you
will make yourself more visible to the other
drivers, thus notably reducing the risk of
being knocked down, and you will be more
protected in case of fall.
Always wear your crash helmet. Many
accidents are fatal because of injuries to the
head.
This clothing should be very tightfitting
and fastened at the wrists and ankles.
Strings, belts and ties should not be hanging
loose; prevent these and other objects
from interfering with driving by getting
entangled with moving parts or driving
mechanisms.
