BN- The San Diego chapter of the Hells Angels, headquartered in EL Cajon, is celebrating its 45th anniversary this weekend. The group will hold a “South Run” event centered in Alpine May 20-22. Thousands of motorcyclists are expected to participate.
“With the expected increase in local vehicular traffic, specifically motorcycle activity, we want to remind our Alpine residents of some safety tips when sharing the roadway with motorcycles,” said Paula H .Dickenson, USN Retired, Crime Prevention Specialist with the San Diego Sheriff’s substation in Alpine.
“First, all motorists have an equal right to use the roadways. Second, both share the same responsibility to follow the rules of the road," she advised. "There also needs to be mutual respect among motorists, motorcyclists, truckers and bicyclists alike. Remember too, although you may legally have the right of way in a particular situation, don't demand it. Always drive safely and courteously."
May is motorcycle safety month. Dickenson advises motorists to give motorcyclists and bicyclists a full lane of travel. Look for them both on the roadway, at intersections, when making turns, and when changing lanes. “Allow plenty of distance between you and any vehicles you are following,” she adds. “Drive defensively!”
