PART I

2.E - NIGHT RIDING

Riding a bicycle at night is much more dangerous

than riding during the day. A bicyclist is very dicult

for motorists and pedestrians to see. Therefore,

children should never ride at dawn, at dusk or at

night. Adults who chose to accept the greatly

increased risk of riding at dawn, at dusk or at night

need to take extra care both riding and choosing

specialized equipment which helps reduce that

risk. Consult your dealer about night riding safety

equipment.

WARNING

REFLECTORS ARE NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR

REQUIRED LIGHTS. RIDING AT DAWN, AT

DUSK, AT NIGHT OR AT OTHER TIMES OF POOR

VISIBILITY WITHOUT AN ADEQUATE BICYCLE

LIGHTING SYSTEM AND WITHOUT REFLECTORS

IS DANGEROUS AND MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS

INJURY OR DEATH.

Bicycle reﬂectors are designed to pick up and reﬂect

street lights and car lights in a way that may help you

to be seen and recognized as a moving bicyclist.

CAUTION

Check reﬂectors and their mounting

brackets regularly to make sure that they are

clean,straight, unbroken and securely mounted.

Have your dealer replace damaged reﬂectors and

straighten or tighten any that are bent or loose.

The mounting brackets of front and rear reﬂectors

are often designed as brake straddle cable safety

catches which prevent the straddle cable from

catching on the tire tread if the cable jumps out of its

yoke or breaks.

WARNING

DO NOT REMOVE THE FRONT OR REAR

REFLECTORS OR REFLECTOR BRACKETS FROM

YOUR BICYCLE.

They are an integral part of the bicycle’s safety

system.

REMOVING THE REFLECTORS MAY REDUCE

YOUR VISIBILITY TO OTHERS USING THE

ROADWAY. BEING STRUCK BY OTHER

VEHICLES MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR

DEATH.

The reﬂector brackets may protect you from the

brake straddle cable catching on the tire in the

event of brake cable failure. If a brake straddle

cable catches on the tire, it can cause the wheel

to stop suddenly, causing you to loose control

and fall.

If you choose to ride under conditions of poor

visibility, check and be sure you comply with all

local laws about night riding, and take the following

strongly recommended additional precautions:

• Purchase and install battery or generator

powered head and tail lights which meet all

regulatory requirements and provide adequate

visibility.

• Wear light colored, reective clothing and

accessories, such as a reﬂective vest, reﬂective

arm and leg bands, reﬂective stripes on your

helmet, ﬂashing lights attached to your body

and/or your bicycle ... any reﬂective device or

light source that moves will help you get the

attention of approaching motorists, pedestrians

and other trac.

• Make sure your clothing or anything you may

be carrying on the bicycle does not obstruct a

reﬂector or light.

• Make sure that your bicycle is equipped with

correctly positioned and securely mounted

reﬂectors.
