CYCLE
Ride
with traffic. Obey all signs, signals and traffic laws.
Stop and look before entering a street from a parking lot or driveway.
Wear a helmet correctly (level and snug). A helmet is required by
law for children fifteen and younger. Ride with lights at
night. Use proper hand signals when turning. Riding single
file in traffic is often safer than riding two abreast. Do not drink
and cycle. Cycling, roller blading or skateboarding is prohibited
on the sidewalks downtown. Yield to pedestrians.
Secure bicycles in bike racks when parking downtown. Perform a safety
inspection before riding. Make eye contact with vehicle drivers
and signal your intentions. Maintain a safe speed when using an
off-road path. Do not weave in and around vehicles. Warn pedestrians
before passing them from behind on an off-road path. Stay to the
right side of an offroad path to allow for two-way traffic. Be
predictable. |
