Abstract

Accident-prevention tips for motorcyclists are presented. To reduce the mortality rate for motorcycle riders, which is about double that for automobile occupants, motorcyclists should drive defensively, anticipate possible hazards, remain highly visible, wear adequate protective clothing and headgear, learn the limitations of the machine, and maintain reasonable speed. Motorcyclists should also avoid quick and constant lane changes, tailgating, and riding in foul weather. "Laying the cycle down," which represents a controlled crash, is recommended only as a last resort to avoid more serious injury.
