Bicycle accidents are increasing
Many bicycle accidents involve collisions
with cars or trucks whose drivers never
"see" the bicyclist until after it's too late.
As a bicyclist, you .have just as much
right to the road as cars, buses or trucks.
But you're small and they're big, and
being right doesn't help if they don't see
you! So it's up to you to watch out for you.
Stay alert to stay alive !
We urge you and your -family to become
familiar with the rules of bicycle safety.
Your Ontario government has
prepared a special booklet called "The
Bicyclist's Handbook". It covers cycling
tips, rules of the road, tr4ffic signs, how
to become an expert cyclist and how to
maintain a safe bicycle.
