I'm a cyclist, and I"ll be seeing you on the road. I'll be looking for you, will you be looking out for me? Thanks!

All drivers have the responsibility to pass slower vehicles with due care- even if that vehicle is a bicycle.

While driving, you may encounter emergency vehicles, road construction or slow moving vehicles. Start your trip with extra time to allow for delays. It will make your trip more pleasant!

News Flash! You do NOT actually own the road! It is a PUBLIC road, to be shared with many types of vehicles: Cars, trucks, motorcycles, bicycles and busses. Thank you, that is all.

Nationally, 22% of all highway funds come from sales taxes, property taxes and your local government's general funds. That means that even folks without cars are paying for the PUBLIC roads. You should thank them!

Dogs love to chase! They love to chase cyclists too. But dogs who chase cyclists will often run into the street and into danger. It is for your dogs own good to restrain him.

When parking on the street, check for cyclists before opening your door. It's the law, and it could save someone's life.

Excuse me, did you know that it is OK not to answer your cell phone? You will have plenty of time to return the call after you park. Doesn't that person deserve your full attention anyway?
