 | Head injuries can be serious. Protect your head; wear a helmet! If you are using a skateboard, rollerblades, or skates, also wear elbow and knee pads. | See and be seen -- wear proper clothes and reflectors. | Make sure your equipment is safe and properly adjusted. | Use marked paths and safe areas when possible. | Use hand signals when turning. | When riding bikes on the street, always go in the same direction as car traffic. | Don't ride double.
 | Obey the rules of the road. It will be somebody else's fault should you be involved in an accident with a vehicle.
 | Ride slow in parking lots and watch for pedestrians, especially if they have packages or small children with them. | | | | | | | | |
