CLOTHING

Always wear and fasten your helmet
correctly before moving off. Make sure
your helmet complies with applicable
regulations, is not damaged, is the right
size and keep the visor clean.
Wear protective clothing, preferably bright
and/or reflective clothing. This will ensure
you are easily seen by other road users
and reduce the risk of an accident, besides
affording improved protection in the event
of a fall.
Wear tight-fitting clothing fastened at the
wrists and ankles; make sure no strings,
belts and ties are hanging loose; make
sure no items of clothing or other objects
can distract you or become entangled with
moving parts or with the handlebars.
