Bicycle Riders
Must Keep Alert
Young Riders Should -
Learn Traffic Laws
Youngsters, particularly those who
ride bicycles, should learn traffic
laws and regulations early in life.
Bicycles, if ridden thoughtlessly,
can get children into the same kind
of trouble that adults often experi-
ence* with a car. Statistics show
that at least 25,000 injuries and
800 deaths on the highway occurred
to cyclists during the past year,
mostly resulting from actions which
were traffic regulation violations.
Defective bicycles accounted for one
out of every three of these ac-
cidents.
With the opening of school, when
hundreds of additional youngsters
will be riding bicycles, parents
should make sure that children
know and obey the following regu-
lations and common sense practices:
When turning left or right, use
the same arm signals that are fol-
lowed by motorists. Traffic lights,
be obeyed. At busy intersections,
dismount and walk across.
In many places riding on side-
walks is taboo. Where this is the
law obey it! For night riding, keep
your headlamp and tail reflector in
good working order. For all riding,
equip your bicycle with horn or bell.
Give passing cars plenty of room,
hug right side of road. Never ride
in center or two-abreast.
Take the necessary time and
pains to learn to ride well. Get an
experienced cyclist to help. Practice
in a safe area, away from traffic.
Make sure handlebars and saddle
are properly adjusted. Set saddle so
that when pedal is at lowest point
rider's leg is comfortably straight.
Stunts like riding no -hands,
standing on seat, coasting with feet
on handlebars belong in the circus.
Leave them for professionals.
Two-on-a-bike is dangerous since
it interferes with rider's vision,
steering and balance,
Use special care on rainy days to
prevent skidding. Take wet street-
car tracks at right angles (90°) or
as nearly so as possible.
Watch out for the standing car
