  1. 3 Safety Tips For Cyclists In Philadelphia

  2. Riding a bicycle is an excellent way to get in some exercise and see the sights of the city. Whether you ride as part of your daily commute or just enjoy riding for leisure, it is important to stay safe while on the roadways. Unfortunately, despite any precautions taken, accidents can and do occur—according to data published by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, cyclist deaths has been on the rise each year since 2014.

  3. Here Are 3 Safety Tips Every Cyclist Should Know: 01. Make sure equipment is in working order Always obey traffic laws 02. 03. Always use reflectors, even during the day

  4. Make Sure Equipment Is In Working Order It goes without saying that you want to ride a bicycle that is in good working order, but not every cyclist is diligent about checking their equipment before going for a ride. Make certain that tires are aired up, reflectors are clean, headlights and tail lights are functional, and that any modifications or attachments (such as water bottle holders, baskets, or trailers) are firmly attached each time you ride.

  5. ALWAYS OBEY TRAFFIC LAWS Bicyclist laws are put in place to make sure that cyclists, pedestrians and motorists can all share the roadways safely, so do your part and obey the laws. Avoid taking “shortcuts” such as riding on sidewalks intended for pedestrian use only or rolling through stop signs when the way visually appears to be clear.

  6. Always Use Reflectors, Even During The Day Although state law dictates that only certain reflectors are required on bicycles and only at certain times of day, using extra reflectors is always a good idea, even during the daylight hours. If the weather takes a turn during the day and visibility becomes poor, having more reflectors installed on your bike (or worn on your person, as with reflective vests or other reflective clothing) can help other people on the road see you.
