Education Is Key For Bicyclist and Motorist Safety

Greg Walker, both an endurance athlete and Engineering Professional in Bakersfield, California, has written a moving, well-reasoned, and important editorial about SB 910 (otherwise known as “Give Me 3″). As one of the estimated 51,000 bicyclists to visit the Emergency Room for a motor-vehicle-related accident, he has a particularly personal story to tell about bicycle safety.

You can read his article in the Bakersfield Californian to hear the story of his bicycle accident, his reasons for supporting the “Give Me 3″ bill, and his important call for education of both motorists and bicyclists.

Happy 4th of July, readers! Ride safe!
