A few extra seconds of awareness can save a life.
As more bicyclists hit the roads during the warmer months, it’s important for everyone to do their part. Drivers and cyclists alike share the responsibility of keeping our roads safe.
Look twice. Slow down. Stay alert.
Safety starts with all of us. 🚲⚠️

Over the past few years we have seen a drastic increase in crashes involving e-bikes, e-scooters and other e-devices.
These devices are especially dangerous for children and many parents forget that the speed and power of some of the e-devices are rivaling those of mopeds or small motorcycles!
Indeed, in Missouri, youth under 16 years of age are not permitted to ride class three e-bikes.
Lastly, regular "bike" helmets (which are required by city code!) may not offer enough protection based on the speeds driven.

Seat belts save lives. It only takes a few seconds to buckle up, but that simple choice can make all the difference.
Too many young drivers and passengers are still riding unbuckled, putting themselves and others at risk every day. Whether you’re heading across town or just down the street, make seat belts a habit every single trip.
Protect yourself. Protect your future. Protect the people who care about you.
Buckle up. Every trip. Every time.
