Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone joins members of the cycling community and safety advocates to unveil the first of a series of public service announcements to remind Suffolk County motorists, cyclists and pedestrian to follow the rules of the road.
Pedestrians have the same rights as other road users like motorists and cyclists in using the roads. They should also be concerned about road safety, and obey traffic rules to ensure the safety of all.
A bicycle can easily wobble when slowing down. Pedestrians should check traffic on both sides before crossing a cycle track. Give way to cyclists or make eye contact. Make sure that it is safe and there is no oncoming bicycle before you cross.
It is against the law to jog or walk on a cycle track. Also, do not take your pet to walk on it. To prevent collision, always keep to the footpath and use pedestrian crossings.
If you go for a walk near a cycle track in the evening, it is recommended to wear clothes in light colours so that you are easily seen by cyclists in order to avoid an accident.
Through Pennsylvania's Safe Routes to School program, a series of five videos promoting bicycle safety was developed. Video 5, "Bicycle Laws," is targeted at motorists, cyclists and law enforcement officials. The video demonstrates common offenses by motorists and bicyclists. Common misconceptions about bicycle laws are also addressed.
En un conflicto permanente se ha transformado el uso de las bicicletas en Santiago, la falta de ciclo vías obliga a ciclistas a circular por las veredas ocasionando un desmedro a la circulación de los peatones.
