Thou shalt not ride two on a bike. 2. Thou shalt not hitch rides on trucks. 3. Thou shalt slways ride in single file. 4. Thou shalt always use proper signals when turning. 5, Thou shalt ride on the right hand side at all times. 6, Thou shalt obey all traffic signs and signals. 7. Thou shalt not do trick riding on streets and Highways. 8, Thou shalt ride a safety equipped bicycle. 9. Thou shalt keep your bicycle in good repair. 10. Thou shalt dismount and walk at busy intersections. It might also be advisable to remember the 'KNIGHT RIDERS PRAYER' 'On this bicycle I am about to ride May the Lord make me truly careful. Amen.'
