California law provides that riders below the age of 21 must take a compulsory Basic Rider Course (BRC). The latter is also recommended for those above 21 years and want to obtain a motorcycle license. Those who complete the course get a Certificate of Completion of Motorcycle Training.
The state has over 800,000 registered motorcycle riders, making bike crashes a common occurrence. The Cal-Department of Motor Vehicles provides guidelines and safety tips for bikers to prevent accidents that often end fatally.
Some of the tips include wearing a US Department of Transportation compliant helmet, protective apparel, and undergoing the safety course. A motorcyclist must be familiar with his or her bike, and ensure that he or she is visible, and communicate his or her intention to other road users.
Keep adequate space for passing and lane splitting, and be prepared to act always. Additionally, motorcycle riders must obey traffic rules and regulations when on the road and drive within the legal speed limit.
