Ride Safe USA Safety Tip: When riding your motorcycle always ensure that you have multiple escape routes in particular when in congested areas. Making it a habit to scan 12 seconds ahead while riding gives you a chance to expect the unexpected and begin formulating a course of action in the event something should go wrong. Anticipate that other motorist may be subject to inattentional blindness, that is failing to see what is plainly visible, namely you, the motorcyclist. Understanding this phenomenon will help you to settle in to a mental processing stage with safety in mind. Safety and safe operations of a motorcycle begins with self-awareness absent ego driven show-boating. Reflecting back on your motorcycle safety class you will remember that one’s attitude about safety is the main ingredient in staying safe. Don’t forget TCLOCS (pre ride inspection) and ATGAT (all the gear all the time).
