BRIDING an ill-equipped bicycle is courting disaster. During 1945 there were 245 accidents
involving bicycles in B.C., and by far the greatest number of bicycle accidents were the

result of with an

This year traffic on the roads is much heavier, and greater precautions must be taken by

both motorists and cyclists.

Here are some safety rules for cyclists which should be given special attention: Always ride

single file on busy or narrow streets, Never ride more than

two abreast. Don’t “hitch on” to trucks or cars and never
“stunt’’ or race in traffic. Don’t carry another person on
your bicycle—it obstructs your vision and makes steering
and balance difficult. Be sure your bicycle is equipped
with lights and bell, and that the brakes are in good
working condition. Adhere to traffic regulations. Know
and obey those sections of the Highway Act of British
Columbia which deal with bicycles ...and cycle in safety.
