New Jersey Motorcycle Accident Avoidance Recommendations:

A motorcycle riders' best defense against injury is to obey New Jersey laws and wear protective clothing and equipment:

Helmet - In New Jersey, motorcyclists are required by law to wear a DOT-approved helmet.
Eye Protection - Glasses, Goggles or a Shield
Jacket - Durable Material and Long Sleeves
Trousers - Durable Material, Tight Fitting
Footwear - Durable Boots, Ankles Covered
Hand Wear - Durable, Flexible Gloves

Motorcyclist Safety Tips:

Drive Defensively - Assume motorists do not see you and plan escape routes.
Make Yourself Visible - Wear bright colored and reflective clothing. Do not linger in "blind spots". Adjust your lane position.
Give Yourself Time and Space to React - Do not tailgate. Use the "Two Second Rule" or the "Four Second Rule" to create space between you and vehicles ahead of you.
Avoid Sudden Braking or Turning When Driving on Wet Roads or Gravel - With only two tires, motorcycles have less tire traction than other vehicles.

Enhance Your Skills with Education - New Jersey offers various safety and skill courses, for riders new and old. View more information, or call 609-633-9308.
