Explanation
Motorcycles are common on New York roads. Riders are legally required to wear approved helmets and eye protection, and to keep their headlights and taillights on while riding for safety. However, motorcycles are less visible and more vulnerable than other vehicles. As a driver, you must stay alert-especially when changing lanes or passing. Always give motorcycles extra space, as they may need to swerve suddenly to avoid road hazards.
