Motorcycle Collisions Can Be Prevented

Motorcycles provide an open road, but safety is key. Wear a DOT-approved helmet and protective gear every time you ride to prevent injuries from crashes. Keep visible — use headlights, bright-colored clothing, and try not to ride in blind spots. Observe all the rules of the road and keep your speed in check, and never ride while impaired. Keep your wits about you and never assume anyone else sees you.

The choices you make can save your life.

Motorcyclists face greater risks on the road because they have less protection in a collision. Drivers should remain alert, check blind spots, and give motorcycles enough space.
