Motorcycle Awareness for the Clueless – Lesson 4

Lesson 4: Pick a Lane

Changing lanes during motorcycle season is risky business. Motorcycles are much harder to see, especially in larger trucks. That’s why it’s important to use turn signals, check blind spots, and double-check mirrors before changing lanes, and also why it’s important to drive as predictably as possible. Weaving erratically through traffic makes it difficult for motorcyclists to avoid your blind spots, and could result in a tragic traffic accident.

So drive responsibly, be AWARE, and always take extra caution when changing lanes. Or, better yet, just pick a lane and stick with it.
