Chapter 8: Sharing the Road › Vulnerable road users · printed page 99 (PDF page 101)

Tips for driving safely with motorcycle riders: • Never share a lane with a motorcycle rider. A motorcycle rider needs the whole lane to travel safely. • Be aware that motorcycle riders will often move within their lane to avoid road hazards, such as pot holes, and to maintain a space cushion from other vehicles. • When you are following someone riding a motorcycle, allow extra space between your vehicle and the motorcycle because motorcycles can stop very quickly. • Be aware that poor weather, road conditions, or road hazards could make the motorcycle rider lose control.
