Bicycle Safety Tips for Busy Urban Roads

Cycling in urban areas like North Sacramento comes with unique challenges. To reduce the risk of injury, cyclists should always wear helmets, use reflective clothing, and equip their bikes with lights, particularly during low-visibility hours. Riding with the flow of traffic, obeying signals, and signaling turns can also improve safety. For drivers, staying alert, yielding to cyclists at intersections, and allowing ample passing distance are key to preventing collisions. Shared responsibility and awareness on both sides can go a long way in protecting everyone on the road.
