Do you have anything I can read about motorcycle safety?
Visit the Library page and review these three booklets listed under the Safety Tips category: “You and Your Motorcycle: Riding Tips” booklet (many manufacturers include this booklet with their new motorcycles) “Motorcycle Operator Manual” booklet (many states use this booklet as a basis for their DMV reference handbook for motorcycle license applicants) “Sharing The Roadway” booklet for non-motorcyclists I don’t want to become a RiderCoach but I’d still like to teach motorcycle riders to be safer.…or…I’d like to teach car drivers to be more aware of motorcyclists
We are glad to hear of your interest in promoting motorcycle safety. We have several self-contained curriculum products that can be taught by anyone, especially motorcycle enthusiasts and others who are concerned with traffic safety. Whether you’re a riding club leader, a schoolteacher, or just someone who enjoys the sport of motorcycling, you’ll find it rewarding to present our curricula to your peers, your students, or your community.
