Live Free Ride Alive Motorcycle Program Appearing At Lansdale Bike Night

9/8/2016-LANSDALE

Live Free Ride Alive (LFRA), PennDOT's comprehensive motorcycle safety
program,
will sponsor a booth at Lansdale Bike Night September 10. The program is
aimed
at reducing the number of motorcycle crashes and fatalities on Pennsylvania

roadways through education and interaction among riders.

Riders at the event can access the program's interactive website designed
specifically for motorcyclists, www.LiveFreeRideAlive.com, at the LFRA
booth.
The website challenges riders to accept personal responsibility for their
own
safety. Important messages include obeying the speed limit and not drinking
and
riding. The website also emphasizes the importance of being properly
licensed
to operate a motorcycle and encourages the use of protective gear.

The website also features short videos explaining the free courses
available
for all riders through the Pennsylvania Motorcycle Safety Program.

Website users can also share their riding experiences and lessons about
what
they've learned about riding. Riders can take the "Be One Less" pledge,
promising to strive to be "one less" crash statistic in honor of
motorcyclists
who have been injured or killed in crashes.
