Appendix A

Teaching Your Child The Rules

In addition to The Basics (page 6), Riding Safely (page

7), Off Road Safety (page 8), Wet Weather Riding (page

8), Night Riding (page 9), Bicycling in Trafc (page 7 and

Appendix A) and Downhill, Stunt and Competition Biking

(page 10), kids need to be taught and to have frequently

reinforced the following rules and lessons which adults are

already expected to know. We urge you to take the time to

familiarize yourself with these rules and to teach them to

your child before you let your child ride unsupervised.

1. RULES

• No playing in the road or in the street.

• No riding on busy streets.

• No riding at dawn, dusk or at night.

• Stop for all STOP signs.

• Ride on the right of trafc.

2. LESSONS

The lessons that follow relate to some of the most common

real situations that children encounter when riding their

bikes. Go over these situations with your child and make

sure the lesson objective is accomplished.

a. Driveway Rideout

When a youngster rides out of the driveway and is struck

by a car, that is called a rideout accident. What can you do?

First, realize the danger of your own driveway. If there are

obstructions to the view of passing motorists (like bushes

or trees), trim them back. You might park your car in front

of the driveway, if local ordinance permits. This way, your

child can’t use the driveway as a launching pad. But the

most important thing you can do is teach your child about

driveway safety. Take your child outside to the driveway

and have him/her practice the following steps:

1) Stop before entering the street.

2) Look left, right and left again for trafc.

3) If there’s no trafc, proceed into the roadway.

b. Running a Stop Sign

Car/bike crashes can happen when a cyclist runs a stop

sign. Most cyclists who get hit riding through stop signs

know that they were supposed to stop. They just thought

it would be OK this time; or they may have been dis-

tracted. The thing to impress upon your child is that while

he/she may not get hit every time, running stop signs

will eventually result in an accident. What can you do?

Take your child to a stop sign near home. Explain what it

means by emphasizing the following points:

1) Stop at all stop signs, regardless of what is happening.

2) Look in all directions for trafc.

3) Watch for oncoming cars making left turns.

4) Watch for cars behind you making right turns.

5) Wait for any cross trafc to clear.

6) Proceed when safe.

In order to make this lesson stick, you may have to

change your own driving habits. If you creep through in-

tersections controlled by stop signs, you are showing your

child that you don’t really believe what you preach. For

your child’s sake, stop at stop signs.
