Observe all rules of the road. Particularly
pay attention to all warning, regulatory and
informational signs.
Avoid showing off (i.e., popping wheelies).
Especially observe speed limits, remember
that road conditions change with the
weather and wet and icy pavements are
particularly dangerous for vehicles,
especially if you are riding too fast.
Remember that automobile drivers have a
hard time seeing two wheeled vehicles, so
always give the automobile the right of
way, even if it is legally yours.
Before changing lanes, look over your
shoulder to make sure that the way is
clear. Do not rely exclusively on the rear-
view mirror: you may miscalculate the
distance and speed of a vehicle, or you
may even not see it at all.
Avoid obstacles that could damage the
vehicle or make you lose control.
Do not tailgate, do not attempt to increase
your gas mileage by following in the slip
stream of cars or trucks in front of you.
In case of accident motorcycles, scooters
and mopeds do not provide the same
d e g r e e o f p r o t e c t i o n e n s u r e d b y
automobiles. The legs, in particular, are
e x p o s e d t h e r i s k o f b e i n g i n j u r e d .
However, the additional installation of leg
guards may actually increase the risk of
injuries and their seriousness in case of
accident.
Do not install leg guards available on the
market of spare parts and accessories.
Non-compliance with these instructions
may result in serious injuries or even
death.
Always ride with both hands on the
handlebars and feet on the footrests.
Never shift gear without using the clutch, if
the vehicle is so equipped. Do not operate
the shift lever or the other controls
suddenly or abruptly. Such misuse can
damage the internal components of the
vehicle and consequently cause seizure,
loss of control, accidents and serious
injuries or even death.
Remain in the seat when you are riding. Do
not stand up or attempt to stretch while you
are riding your vehicle. If you need to rest,
pull over to the side of the road when it can
be safely done.
