It&#8217;s a fun, low-impact injury that also gives you another mode of transportation and a way to explore the wide open spaces of Oklahoma. It&#8217;s a great hobby.<\/p>\n<p>That doesn&#8217;t mean it&#8217;s perfectly safe. If you&#8217;re going to ride near cars, you have to be conscious of the risks you face. One mistake by a driver could put you in the hospital. Here are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.active.com\/triathlon\/articles\/road-safety-tips-for-cyclists\" target=\"_blank\">a few tips<\/a> to help you stay safe:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Use lights whenever you ride at night, at dawn or at dusk. The best lights are those with a blinker setting.<\/li>\n<li>Wear bright clothes every time you go out. Whether you ride at night or during the day, consider reflective tape or reflective clothing, as well.<\/li>\n<li>Practice defensive riding. Assume that drivers are going to make mistakes. Stay alert at all times.<\/li>\n<li>Don&#8217;t listen to music or wear headphones when you ride. Many people love to do it, but it is distracting and it makes defensive riding harder.<\/li>\n<li>If you come to an intersection, slow down and watch for cars that may run the stop sign or drivers who are turning.<\/li>\n<li>Know where to ride in the road. Don&#8217;t go up on the sidewalk or ride against traffic.<\/li>\n<li>If you are crossing in front of a stopped car, always try to make eye contact with the driver first.<\/li>\n<li>Learn the hand signals and use them whenever you turn.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>These tips can absolutely help you, but you could still get injured in an accident. Make sure you <a href=\"\/personal-injury\/car-accidents\/\">know your rights<\/a> to compensation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A bicycle is a great way to get out and get active this summer.
