Safety Precautions<br />
Carrying a Passenger (continued)<br />
S Adjust your riding style to compensate for the differences in handling, acceleration, and braking caused<br />
by the additional weight of the passenger. Failure to do so can cause you to lose control of the<br />
motorcycle.<br />
Protective Apparel<br />
To decrease the risk of injury and increase riding comfort, wear the following:<br />
S Wear a Department of Transportation (DOT) or SNELL approved helmet. Some state laws require that<br />
you wear an approved helmet. In accidents involving motorcycles, head injuries are the leading cause<br />
of motorcyclist fatalities, and statistics prove that an approved helmet is the most effective<br />
protection in preventing or reducing head injuries.<br />
S Wear eye protection. Some state laws require that you wear eye protection. Eye protection reduces the<br />
chance that your vision could be impaired by wind or by airborne particles and objects.<br />
S You and your passenger should wear bright or light colored and/or reflective clothing to improve your<br />
visibility to other motorists. A motorist’s failure to see or recognize a motorcycle is the leading cause<br />
of automobile/motorcycle accidents.<br />
S Wear gloves and a jacket to prevent or reduce abrasions, lacerations, or burns that you can suffer if you<br />
fall.<br />
