Traffic Law

Avoid motorcycle accidents

Motorcyclists face immense danger on the roads due to their vulnerability and lack of protection in the event of an accident.

Unfortunately, motorcyclists are more likely to be involved in accidents than car drivers. This is because they are responsible for 14% of all traffic deaths in the US. As a result, NHTSA has identified motorcyclists as a high-risk group.

Helmet use

Motorcycle helmets are essential for any driver, and they can save lives in an emergency situation. Unfortunately, not all helmets are the same. While buying a cheaper helmet that looks good on the outside may seem convenient, it would put you at risk of serious injury in the event of a collision.

Investing in a quality helmet that meets federal regulations is vital to staying safe and avoiding brain injuries while riding on two wheels.

Drive with license

In California, motorcyclists must have a valid license to drive legally. To obtain the license, applicants must pass a series of tests that will test their knowledge of traffic regulations and driving skills.

Obtaining your driver’s license gives you the opportunity to develop your driving experience. It’s an essential step in becoming a better driver, and it certifies that you have the knowledge and confidence to safely navigate the roads while protecting you from any potential legal issues.

Drive sober

Driving while intoxicated presents a significant risk to life and property. Therefore, the impacts of this dangerous behavior should not be underestimated. Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs can have devastating effects, including permanent physical and emotional damage and even death.

The detrimental effects of alcohol or drugs can cause poor judgment, slower reaction time, and weakened coordination, all of which increase the likelihood of an accident.

Obey traffic laws

Following traffic laws is critical to avoiding dangerous motorcycle accidents. Obeying speed limits, traffic lights, and lane spacing can save lives and ensure a safe journey for everyone. Therefore, it is crucial that drivers abide by the rules at all times.
