In the dark, bicyclist and pedestrian accidents and fatalities occur at much higher rates than in the daytime. We believe in the importance of visibility within our community. The Be Safe. Be Seen. movement sheds light to the important aspects of safety in the dark.
Winter is a great time to talk about how to
BE VISIBLE. BE ALERT. BE PREDICTABLE. BE KNOWLEDGEABLE. BE SAFE. BE SEEN.
