Motorcycling is really full of freedom, excitement, and an on-the-go feeling, but one must be responsible enough to get that thrill; safety is always the first consideration. Whether one is in traffic going to work or cruising down the night highways, alertness and preparedness can mean the difference.
And when it comes to protecting yourself and your ride as well, iTracker-a revolutionary GPS tracking device from IFAD Information & Technology Limited, a concern of the renowned IFAD Group- can very well put you in an edge.
Known for reliability and innovation in Bangladesh since 1985, the IFAD Group has been a trusted name for decades. With iTracker, you don’t just ride; you ride smart and safe.
Let’s explore 11 essential tips every motorcyclist should follow to ensure a safe journey every time.
1. Always Wear a Helmet
This one is a no-brainer, literally. A helmet is the most critical safety gear you will have. It protects you from head injuries in the event of an accident. Look for DOT or ECE certification for the helmet, and then make sure it’s snug.
Pro Tip: Change the helmet every five years or after any big impact.
2. Gear Up Beyond the Helmet
Your helmet is just the beginning. Clothing as riding gloves, boots, and jackets with armor protection are very necessary. They are not just for fashion but protect one from abrasions and harsh weather.
Dress for the slide, not the ride. Even a minor fall can cause serious injuries if you’re not covered properly.
3. Do a Pre-Ride Check
Every single time before your ride, spend one or two minutes checking out your bike. Tire pressure, brakes, lights, mirrors, and oil levels should be checked. Putting all parts of your bike into top condition can prevent breakdowns or dangerous malfunctions while riding.
iTracker takes it a step further: it tracks and monitors your motorcycle movements anytime, anywhere, and lets you remain informed about its condition.
4. Stay Visible
Motorcycles are often overlooked by drivers. By using bright colors, keeping your headlights on, and riding outside the areas where other vehicles cannot see. As much as possible, be visible; you make yourself safe.
5. Follow the Rules of the Road
Respect traffic laws and speed limits. Lane splitting might save you a few minutes, but it increases risk dramatically. Signal every move and stay predictable to other road users.
6. Ride Defensively
Assume you are invisible to others. Keep your eyes peeled, stay alert, and know what other drivers will do; keep as much distance from your vehicle as possible, especially large vehicles that block your visibility or stop next to you suddenly.
iTracker’s real-time location updates and movement history can be very useful in busy traffic zones- to ensure you know exactly where you are (or someone else tracking you).
7. Avoid Riding in Bad Weather
Riding through rain, fog, or a very slippery road is exceedingly dangerous. Once you must ride, cut down on your speed, commence braking a little earlier, and exercise extra precaution. Waterproof gear and anti-fog visors can be of assistance for visibility and comfort.
8. Master Cornering & Braking
Most motorcycle accidents take place when the machine is under exertion on turns and hard braking. For smooth cornering and progressive braking, practice and try to look through the curve and avoid panic stops.
9. Never Ride Under the Influence
You would be bringing slow reaction time and judgment under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or even strong medication to your riding. Not only dangerous but also illegal and can cost a life-you’re own in addition to someone else’s.
10. Take a Motorcycle Safety Course
It doesn’t matter if you’re a beginner or an experienced rider; a certified safety course lays down key emergency maneuvers, hazard detection, and accident avoidance learning materials. It will also likely give you discounts on your motorcycle insurance premiums.
11. Use Smart Tech for Extra Safety
Why not let modern technology help you ride safer? Device like iTracker gives advanced GPS tracking, anti-theft alarms, geo-fencing alerts, and even scores on driving behavior that’s exactly perfect for an evaluation of your motorcycle regardless of whether you’re on or off it.
