May is National Bicycle Safety Month, and to help keep bicyclists and pedestrians safe, the Riverside County Sheriff’s Lake Elsinore Station will conduct a traffic safety operation throughout the month.
The operation will focus on driver behaviors that put bicyclists and pedestrians at risk, including speeding, making illegal turns, failure to yield right of way, and stop sign/red light running. The goal is to raise awareness and improve safety for everyone sharing the road.
“Bicycling is a great means of transportation and recreation, and everyone deserves to ride to their destination safely,” Riverside County Sheriff’s Deputy Keyser said. “Whether you are behind the wheel or on two wheels, we all share the responsibility to move safely on our roads.”
