For our blog this week, we thought it pruDENT (pun intended ;-)
to stay with the overall safety topic but this time, address an
area that pertains to child safety on two-wheels instead of four.
As is our way week-in-and-week-out, we scour the web looking
for great topics to cover and share. This week was no
exception. While conducting our shared-content search, we came upon
the safercar.gov website. First and foremost,
we invite everyone reading this blog to please take a moment
to check
out this comprehensive safety website full of great info, facts
and figures that will help keep you and your family safe. As we
perused the safercar.gov website, we found many subjects that we
wanted to share. One in particular covered "Tips to Increase Your
Child's Bicycle Safety". As all drivers know, safety at all times
is critical inside as well as outside the vehicle. Knowing that, we
selected some highlights of the "Bicycle Safety Tips" info, listing
them below for your review.
Before every ride, remember the ABCs and check
the:
- Air in the tires.
- Brakes
- Chain
The old saying goes a long way when it comes to bicycle safety
... "Practice Makes Perfect". Also. Using the right SIZE gear like
bicycle and helmet will also help keep your children safe while on
two-wheels.
