2 MOTORCYCLE A motorcycle is commonly defined as any vehicle having a seat or saddle for the use of the operator designed to travel on at least two, and not more than three, wheels in contact with the ground, on public highways, excluding farm tractors.
3 A RISE IN MOTORCYCLE RIDER FATALITIES SINCE 2000 May be attributed to the following factors: An increase in the number of motorcyclists More miles ridden per rider Unlicensed operators Returning operators (those who have not ridden but have maintained a motorcycle endorsement) Declines in helmet use Alcohol involvement

7 MOTORCYCLE FATALITY FACTS About twice as many motorcycle operators in fatal crashes do not have a valid license compared to passenger car operators. Per million vehicle miles traveled in 2009, motorcyclists were about 26.5 times more likely to die in a crash and 5.3 times more likely to be injured than passenger car occupants. In 2009, 2,062 (46%) of all motorcycle operators involved in fatal crashes collided with another motor vehicle in transport. Motorcycle operators are more likely to be involved in fatal collisions with fixed objects than any other vehicle operators. NHTSA
8 MOTORCYCLING IN TEXAS You must have a valid license to operate a motorcycle, scooter, or moped on Texas roadways. Operators must pass a written test covering traffic laws pertaining to motorcycles, as well as a road test. (The road test can be waived in certain circumstances.) Texas law requires that everyone must pass The Course for Motorcycle Riders to qualify for a motorcycle driver s license. In addition, minors 15 to 17 years of age must also take a Drivers License road test.
9 The Course for Motorcycle Riders Did you know that riders with training crash less often and survive more often (when they do crash) than untrained riders? And they fared better than riders that were trained by a friend or relative. Everyone (not just those under the age of 18) is required to take The Course for Motorcycle Riders to qualify for a motorcycle driver s license.
10 The Basic RiderCourse The Basic RiderCourse is for new or inexperienced riders, and all riders wanting to improve their skills and have more fun riding. During The Course you ll learn how to gear up for safety and you ll practice maneuvering strategies for getting out of dangerous situations and avoiding them in the first place.
11 The Experienced RiderCourse Aimed at experienced motorcyclists, the Experienced RiderCourse teams you with other riders. Everyone brings their own ride, gear, and experiences to class. You ll learn advanced techniques for avoiding and surviving dangerous conditions, including high-speed maneuvering, traction control, and emergency braking.
12 Sign up for The Course To find a course near you: Call , or Contact us at use use the form on the site, or DPS/MSU directly, or Search the list of course locations at or visit the DPS Motorcycle /ATV Safety Training Unit Locations at
13 A prereview of how to stay alive Apply effective mental strategies Be Visible Dress for Safety Do not Drink and Ride
14 Apply effective mental strategies: Constantly search the road for changing conditions. Use MSF s Search, Evaluate, Execute strategy (SEE) to increase time and space safety margins.
15
16 Apply effective mental strategies: Give yourself space and time to respond to other motorists actions. Give other motorists time and space to respond to you. Use lane positioning to be seen; ride in the part of a lane where you are most visible. Watch for turning vehicles.
17
18 Apply effective mental strategies: Signal your next move in advance. Avoid weaving between lanes. Pretend you re invisible, and ride extra defensively. Don't ride when you are tired or under the influence of alcohol or other drugs. Know and follow the rules of the road, and stick to the speed limit.
19 Be Visible: Remember that motorists often have trouble seeing motorcycles and reacting in time. Make sure your headlight works and is on day and night. Use reflective strips or decals on your clothing and on your motorcycle. Be aware of the blind spots cars and trucks have. Flash your brake light when you are slowing down and before stopping. If a motorist doesn t see you, don t be afraid to use your horn.
20 Dress for safety: Wear a quality helmet and eye protection. Wear bright clothing and a light-colored helmet. Wear leather or other thick, protective clothing. Choose long sleeves and pants, over-the-ankle boots, and gloves. Remember the only thing between you and the road is your protective gear.
21 Motorcyclists who die in crashes are 2.5 times more likely to have consumed alcohol than vehicle drivers. Motorcycle operators involved in fatal crashes have higher intoxication rates than any other type of motor vehicle driver. looklearnlive.org
22 38% of riders killed in fatal crashes were legally intoxicated. 46% of all riders killed in fatal crashes had some level of alcohol in their blood. 41% of motorcyclists killed in single vehicle crashes were legally intoxicated. Alcohol involved crashes are preventable. Don t Drink and Ride
23 You increase your chances of dying in a crash by 400% with a blood alcohol content (BAC) above the legal limit. Most alcohol-related motorcycle crashes happen at night between the hours of 12 and 3 a.m., after the bars close and the parties end. The majority are single-vehicle crashes as the impaired rider runs off the roadway and crashes into a tree or some other roadside hazard. Most involve males between the ages of 25 and 49. looklearnlive.org
