Patrol and American Motorcyclist Association Continue Ride Smart. Drive Smart. Motorcycle Safety Partnership

COLUMBUS – To kick-off Motorcycle Awareness Month, the Ohio State Highway Patrol and American Motorcyclist Association (AMA) are continuing their Ride Smart. Drive Smart. safety education partnership for a third riding season.

Throughout the spring and summer, the Patrol will provide a series of motorcycle safety tips from the AMA to help make it a safe and enjoyable motorcycle riding season in Ohio. Three key safety messages stressed through the program will be:

• Ride trained/Ride licensed – ensuring riders have a valid motorcycle endorsement, quality motorcycle training, and proper safety equipment. Also, resources are provided to find examination stations.
• Ride sober – incorporating the AMA’s national Ride Straight program.
• Motorcycle awareness - Troopers are stressing the importance of drivers being aware of motorcyclists.

“Continuing our partnership with the AMA for Ride Smart. Drive Smart. maintains a focus on motorcycle safety for all motorists in Ohio during the riding season,” Colonel Richard H. Collins, Patrol superintendent, said. “The only way to significantly reduce motorcycle fatalities is for everyone to share the road and to understand their responsibilities and contributions toward safe travel on our roadways.”
