Motorcyclist are more than 27X more likely than passenger car occupants to die in motor vehicle traffic crashes You’re not invincible on a motorcycle, and speeding only increases your chances of getting into a serious crash.
The speed laws are there for your safety. No matter what, ride at a speed that’s safe for conditions—and within your own limits. Make the right choice to slow down and ride smart. Live to ride another day.
ALL THE GEAR ALL THE TIME
Protective gear does a lot more than meets the eye. It makes the ride more comfortable, improves visibility and could ultimately save your life in a crash. Every rider and passenger should wear sturdy over-the-ankle footwear with non-slip soles, long pants, a good jacket, full-fingered gloves and, above all, a helmet manufactured to meet DOT standards with proper eye protection. Riders are one of the most vulnerable users on the road. Don’t take the chance. Wear all the gear, all the time.
