12. Never ride your E-Bike™ while under the influence of

alcohol or drugs.

13. If possible, avoid riding in bad weather, when visibility is

obscured, or when extremely tired. Each of these conditions

increases the risk of accident.

WET WEATHER RIDING

WARNING:

Wet weather impairs traction, braking and visibility, both for

the rider and for other vehicles sharing the road. The risk of

accident is dramatically increased in wet conditions.

Under wet conditions, the stopping power of your brakes (as

well as the brakes of other vehicles sharing the road) is

dramatically reduced and your tires do not grip nearly as well.

This makes it harder to control speed and easier to lose

control.To make sure that you can slow down and stop safely

in wet conditions, ride more slowly and apply your brakes

earlier and more gradually than you would under normal, dry

conditions.

NIGHT RIDING

Even if you have excellent night vision, many of the people

with whom you share the road do not. A rider is very difficult

for motorists and pedestrians to see at dusk, at night, or at

other times of poor visibility. If you must ride under these

conditions, check and be sure you comply with all local laws

about night riding. Follow the rules of the road even more

carefully, and you must take the following additional

precautions:

Before riding at dusk or at night, take the following steps to

make yourself more visible:

• Make sure that your E-Bike™ is equipped with correctly

positioned and securely mounted reflectors.

• Be sure the headlight and taillight are operational.

• Wear light colored, reflective clothing and accessories,

such as a reflective vest, reflective arm and leg bands,

reflective stripes on your helmet, flashing lights ... any

reflective device or light source that moves will help you

get the attention of approaching motorists, pedestrians

and other traffic.

• Make sure your clothing or anything you may be

carrying on the E-Bike™ does not obstruct a reflector or

light.

While riding at dusk or at night:

• Ride slowly.

• Avoid areas of heavy traffic, dark areas, and roads with

speed limits over 35 mph.

• Avoid road hazards.

• If possible, ride on routes already familiar to you.
