BIKE SAFETY
|
|
Riding a
bike can be a lot of fun! Bike safety is more than wearing a helmet.
There are rules that you need to follow when you ride your bike on the
road. It is easy to fall off a bike and get hurt, especially if you
don’t know the rules of the road or your bike is not working right.
|
|
|
Always
wear a helmet that fits your head—not too big or too small.
Wear the helmit
flat on your head |
|
|
Before you
ride your bike, make sure it is safe and working right. Ask an adult to
check your bike for safety.
|
|
|
Test your
brakes. |
|
|
Make sure
the handlebars are straight and there’s enough air in the tires.

your bike across the street.
