Your reminder about dangers for bikers

It’s the time of year where dangers for bikers could rise as the school terms begins and roads get busier at the same time as the weather starts to turn.

I hear we may be in for an Indian summer, but on the basis we’re to expect the usual September weather, the roads are set to get busier and more dangerous, so the dangers for motorbike riders cannot be ignored.

Drivers still have the same duty of care to make sure they to not create any dangers for bikers at a time when riders may be at greater risk.

September and the increasing dangers for bikers

September can mean that the dangers for bikers increase in light of the roads getting busier as the school terms start again and we’re all largely back to work. As nice as it is being away, or enjoying the quieter roads over the six-weeks holidays when more people are on leave, all good things must come to an end.

The simple possibilities are these:

Busier roads = more dangers for bikers.

Worsening weather = more dangers for bikers.

These are key things to recognise. From a biker’s perspective, it means having to take greater care to watch out for dangerous drivers. Even though the duty of care is, of course, on the driver not to cause an accident, it’s always worth a biker’s time to be more careful at these times of years.
