Many children ride their bikes to school, which means that motorists must use extreme caution when children are riding to and from school. Compared with other vehicles, bikes are more difficult to see, particularly during inclement weather. Although bicyclists have the same rights and responsibilities as motorists, children do not always understand or follow the rules of the road. Therefore, drivers are urged to keep the following safety tips in mind:nBe vigilant when driving in school zones or residential areas.nWatch out for bicyclists turning in front of you without signaling.nWhen making a left turn and a bicyclist is approaching from the opposite direction, wait for the rider to pass before completing the turn.
