 Riding a motorcycle is a very different experience than driving a car. All bikers — especially novices — should take every effort to learn best safety practices before riding on a busy road or highway. A big part of learning involves experience, but there's plenty more to learn off the bike.
Many bikers can benefit from taking a motorcycle safety course, whether online or in a classroom setting. This can be very helpful to new motorcyclists, but seasoned bikers can also benefit from a refresher course. These courses teach about topics such as:
- Road hazards and how to avoid them
- The safe handling of a motorcycle
- Theft prevention
- What to do in the event of an accident
- Improving your visibility on the road
- The importance of helmets and safety gear
Selecting a course specific to Baton Rouge will help Capital Region bikers to get the best experience since they can learn about local situations they might face on a daily basis. For instance, understanding the local helmet and motorcycle insurance laws can help bikers ensure they remain street legal.
And speaking of motorcycle insurance, some insurers are so keen on safety that they';ll offer a premium discount to bikers who have recently taken a motorcycle safety course. This is the case because motorcyclists who keep safety in mind have a lower risk of being involved in an accident — which makes them cheaper for insurance companies to cover. So if you're in the process of buying or renewing a policy, be sure to mention any motorcycle safety coursework you've completed.
