KNOW YOUR LIMITS
Always ride within the boundaries
of your own skills. Knowing these
limits and staying within them will
help you avoid accidents.
A major cause of accidents involv-
ing only a motorcycle (and no
cars) is going too fast through a
turn. Before entering a turn, select
an appropriately low cornering
speed.
Even on straight roads, ride at a
speed that is appropriate for the
traffic, visibility and road condi-
tions, your motorcycle, and your
experience.
Riding a motorcycle safely
requires that your mental and
physical skills are fully part of the
experience. You should not
attempt to operate a motor vehi-
cle, especially one with two
wheels, if you are tired or under
the influence of alcohol or other
drugs. Alcohol, illegal drugs, and
even some prescription and over-
the-counter drugs can cause
drowsiness, loss of coordination,
loss of balance, and especially
the loss of good judgment. If you
are tired or under the influence of
alcohol or other drugs, PLEASE
DO NOT RIDE your motorcycle.
BE EXTRA SAFETY-CONSCIOUS
ON BAD WEATHER DAYS
Riding on bad weather days,
especially wet ones, requires
extra caution. Braking distances
increase on a rainy day. Stay off
the painted surface marks, man-
hole covers, and greasy appear-
ing areas, as they can be
especially slippery. Use extra cau-
tion at railway crossings and on
metal gratings and bridges. When
it starts to rain, any oil or grease
on the road rises to the surface of
the water. Pull over and wait a few
minutes until this oil film is
washed away before riding.
Whenever in doubt about road
conditions, slow down!
