Driving Safely Around Bicyclists and Pedestrians
This interactive, fun presentation focuses on ways motorists can avoid the most common types of collisions, and what the traffic laws are related to bicycling and walking. There are 20-minute and a 40-minute versions to choose from, for different meeting formats.
Bike Safety
A 30-minute presentation on riding your bicycle safely and the Tennessee traffic laws. The course is perfect for a lunch-and-learn at your business or a civic group meeting. Every attendee gets a free reflective ankle strap. On-the-road bicycle training is available upon request (which would make the course 1 1/2-hours long, and require attendees to bring their bicycles and helmets; or we can discuss arrangements to rent bicycles).
