BICYCLE SAFETY

Most people don't steal bikes, but some do. Quite often it is a young person that steals a bike. It could be a friend, a neighbor from down the street or even a classmate.

The main reason the majority of bicycles are stolen is because they weren't locked. To prevent yours from being stolen just follow these safety tips.

Safety Tips to Prevent Theft

  1. Keep a record of your bicycle serial number, which is usually located on the bottom of the frame between the petals.
  2. If your bicycle does not have a serial number, mark your bicycle where your serial number would normally be by engraving your initials or a four-digit number of your choice.
  3. Lock your bicycle using a strong, secure lock.
  4. Secure the bicycle to a bike rack or any other immovable object. Be certain to secure both wheels.
  5. At home, keep your bicycle in a room, basement or locked garage.

Rules of the Road

  1. Always wear a helmet!
  2. Watch out for traffic.
  3. Use hand signals.
  4. Stay to the right. Ride with the traffic, not against it.
  5. Watch out for cars pulling out into traffic and opening car doors.
