It’s Up to You to Protect Yourself When You Ride
|
|
Motorcycles are a lifelong passion for many people, but they have two characteristics that make them uniquely dangerous to their riders:
|
|
- They accelerate very quickly and can reach high speeds in a matter of seconds.
- They have no safety features like seatbelts or airbags that can protect riders in a collision.
|
|
Because of the risks associated with riding a motorcycle, riders must protect themselves by wearing proper gear. But for maximum protection, riders should follow the motto, “all the gear, all the time.” Going without any piece of equipment puts riders at a much higher risk of serious and even life-threatening injuries if they are struck by a vehicle.
