accident.
Therefore:
• Wear a brightly colored jacket.
• Use extra caution when ap-
proaching and passing through
intersections, since intersec-
tions are the most likely places
for motorcycle accidents to oc-

• Ride where other motorists can
see you. Avoid riding in another
motorist’s blind spot.
●
Many motorcycle accidents in-
volve inexperienced operators. In

been involved in accidents do not

• Make sure that you are qualified
and that you only lend your
motorcycle to other qualified op-

have become thoroughly famil-

its controls.

been caused by error of the motor-
