Can bicycles be parked on the sidewalk? I know many people who prefer to ride their bike on the sidewalk rather than the road. It seems like a safer option, especially on busy roads. But did you know that driving on the road is more dangerous than getting in a car? According to statistics, many bicycle accidents occur because cyclists use the sidewalks. This is because drivers do not need to pay attention to pedestrians on the sidewalk, especially if they are coming from the wrong direction. Additionally, there are many obstacles on the road such as pedestrians, road furniture, and signs that may prevent drivers from seeing you. I can speak about this situation from personal experience. When I first started cycling in the city, I always rode on the pavement because I thought it was safer than cycling on the road. But I soon realized that this was more dangerous. I have been in many situations where the car left the driveway or turned right at the intersection. They don’t see me riding my bike on the road at a higher speed. I also had serious accidents while trying to avoid pedestrians passing in front of me. Of course, there may be times when driving on the track is necessary. For example, if you have to cross a busy road twice in a short period of time, or there is a long stretch of highway on the highway, there are no lanes or intersections. In this case, it is important to remember that the path is designed for brisk walking, not cycling. You should control your speed, watch out for pedestrians, always stay on the right and use extreme caution in any lane or intersection. Let’s say the driver didn’t call and didn’t see you. The League of American Bicyclists is committed to providing better cycling education for everyone to keep us all safe on the road.
