🚲 Top 10 Bicycle Safety Tips 🚲 A properly fitted helmet can significantly reduce the risk of serious head injury. High‑visibility colours help drivers spot you, especially in poor weather or low light. Front white and rear red lights are essential, particularly at dawn, dusk, and after dark. Obey traffic signs, signals, and road markings just like other road users. Ride in a straight line, avoid sudden movements, and clearly indicate before turning. Look out for opening doors and keep a safe distance when passing parked vehicles. Ensure drivers have seen you before pulling out or crossing. Do not use mobile phones or headphones while cycling—full awareness keeps you safe. Brakes, tyres, chain, and lights should be checked before every ride. Dedicated cycle lanes can offer an extra layer of safety away from traffi Please take extra care when cycling around residential streets, school areas, and busy junctions locally, particularly during peak morning and afternoon times. Working together—cyclists, drivers, and pedestrians—we can help keep our neighbourhood safe for everyone.
