Dixon Secretary of State Many parents are surprised when their teenagers are arrested for traffic violations and have to make an ap­ pearance in court.. A youth's bad driving record can be a reflection of his parents' bad driving habits. An observing child knows what the speed limit is, and when he sees a parent or guardian exceeding the limit, the apparent lack of concern for the law is remembered for a long time. Any parent who runs stop signs or races through in­ tersections when the amber light is on has failed in his obligation to show his youngster the value of following the rules of the road. Traffic laws, signs and signals must be observed. Parents should realize that the few seconds or minutes they might gain by speeding or cheating at intersections may some day result in the serious injury or death of their teenagers because they may have copied their parents' bad driving habits. This should be a sobering thought for parents. Set a good example for your children behind the wheel at all times. (A copy of the Rules of the Road will be sent to you upon request. Write to Alan J. Dixon, Secretary of State, Springfield, 111., 62756).

Rush Motorcycle Safety Coordinator Illinois Department of Transportation , Many traffic accidents are caused by a lack of awareness between drivers. Motorcycles are smaller than automobiles; they can be more difficult to see and their speed more difficult to judge. Smart motorcyclists make themselves highly visible in traffic and effectively communicate their intentions. One of the best things that you can do to improve your visibility is to be sure that your headlight is on at all times. And remember, current Illinois law states that your headlight must be on when traveling on any roadway open to the public for traffic. You can also improve your visibility by wearing bright- colored clothing. Riding jackets are available which incorporate reflective materials 1 Stick-on or sew-on reflective patches are also available. Put them on your jacket, gloves and helmet. It is essential that you ef­ fectively communicate your intentions to other road users.If . you are going to make a turn or a lane change, for example, signal well in advance with turn signals or hand signals. Even though electric turn signals are not required by Illinois law, most street motorcycles are equipped with them. Unlike automobile signaling devices, most motorcyle signal lights must be manually cancelled by the rider. An uncancelled turn signal confuses other road users and pedestrians and may create a hazard. Pay special attention to cancelling the signal after your turn or lane change has been completed. Hand signals can also be used to ^-communicate your in­ tentions. They should be used in combination with electric signals if traffic is heavy or visibility is poor. Always hand signal early. This allows you to return your hand to the handlebar before your turn or lane change. Riding around a curve one- handed is very dangerous. The brake light is used to communicate with road users to the rear. "Pumping" the brakes lightly can be an ef­ fective way to indicate slowing or Stopping. Do this espeically The horn may be used on occasion to gain the attention of other road users, such as the occupant of a parked automobile or the driver of onp emerging from a driveway. Good visibility and effective communication are two keys to highway survival. Be obvious and predictable to other road users. * - • * Send your questions to me at 2300 S.
