Bike Hand Signals Everyone Should Know
By Kat
Whether you are an experienced cyclist or have never rode a bike before, it’s important to let other drivers know if you are stopping or turning. While drivers of motorized vehicles use their blinkers or backup lights to communicate, as a driver of a bicycle, you will do this with hand signals. Below, we outline the top three hand signals that you need to know in order to stay safe on the road and ensure predictable riding.
When everyone is being safe, bike riding is much more fun and you’re less likely to get into trouble with other traffic! Practice these signals, get a feel for what they are like to perform while riding, and then use them whenever needed.
