Police remind cyclists of some safety tips.
• When riding a bicycle, always wear a helmet. By law, every cyclist younger than 18 must wear an approved helmet.
• Before going out for a ride, make sure the brakes on the bike are working properly.
• Under the Highway Traffic Act, a bike must have a bell or horn in working order.
• Bikes can be ridden on most roads, but when crossing over a pedestrian cross-over, the bike must be walked across.
• Make sure to use proper hand signals to notify motorists of intentions.
•A cyclist must obey the rules of the road and share the road with other vehicles.
• Remember, cyclists have the same rights and responsibilities as motorists when riding on the road.]]></content-encoded>
