What we also need to pay attention besides general safety measures when cycling

It also heard that two riding accident two days, one big accident, one small incident - on their way home. short Cycling JerseysSo thought about how to be more secure? Indeed, I sometimes think: Those of us seem professional and safe riding friends do not even have those old cable car ride to 30-40 yards back and forth in the crowd, often retrograde, red light, not wearing a helmet safety of people !
Summarize some personal experience, mainly for urban traffic, we can refer to.
Riding we often highlight these:

1 wearing a helmet and gloves;

(2) comply with traffic rules and riding order.

In fact, I feel in addition to these there are some very important ways to protect yourself.

1 lights when not converting impulses. Do not rush immediately turned red green to go out, red to green up and do not hurry to go, because some people (especially the cable car) at this time suddenly rushed out. I very often such twenty-three seconds before you go.

2 crossroads turn left when the lights turn left and go straight if both lights are green, do not turn left along with the vehicle. Or take two crosswalks safer.

3 when turning or changing lanes look back, sure there are no cars, from the left to overtake. monton cycling shop When changing lanes turning point not too much to prevent the car behind surprise.

4 roadway easily block the line of sight, you can turn right to the use of "Omega" type turning way.

5 Do not retrograde, and note how those who avoid retrograde. When it comes to car retrograde (especially electric vehicles), and retrograde in advance to determine a good person you will go there, who generally go retrograde left (because if you still insist to go on the right, the left and right by retrograde are coming across the car, make him into a very helpless situation); if the non-motor vehicle lanes wide, each taking the right just fine.

6 no special circumstances, it does not matter brakes, brake Confirm that no one behind. Good pre-judgment, it will be a lot less emergency braking situations. Jicha is easily drift, so the usual practice how to brake.

7 and stopped cars keep their distance, to prevent the people inside suddenly opened the door. If you are sure there is no person, you can close to the point.

8 After the bus station in time to pay attention to whether a car ready by the station to prevent squeezed inside, or get off the pedestrian collision.

9 road bike tires do not pay attention to the road seam trapped inside.

10 turn right downhill to pay special attention. Especially in Longjing, there is often due to "cut corners" retrograde purpose of the riders, careful avoidance. Should look farther, through the jungle.
