May Is Motorcycle Awareness Month
Support From H. Res. 1179
<span data-preserver-spaces="true">This week, the leadership of the House Motorcycle Caucus introduced H. Res. 1179, expressing support for the designation of May 2024 as Motorcycle Safety Awareness Month. The bill <span data-preserver-spaces="true">is sponsored<span data-preserver-spaces="true"> by Rep. Tim Walberg (MI), Rep. Troy Balderson (OH), Rep. Michael Burgess (TX), Rep. Donald Norcross (NJ), and Rep. Derrick Van Orden (WI).
<span data-preserver-spaces="true">Across the nation, cities and states are introducing their own versions of motorcycle awareness resolutions and decrees. H. Res. 1179 lists several reasons why May is <span data-preserver-spaces="true">an important<span data-preserver-spaces="true"> time for motorcycle awareness. Perhaps the best section of the resolution is this line,<span data-preserver-spaces="true"> “<span data-preserver-spaces="true">motorcyclists have a right to the road and that all motorists should safely share the roadways<span data-preserver-spaces="true">.”
<span data-preserver-spaces="true">Those in the motorcyclist rights movement understand the future of motorcycling <span data-preserver-spaces="true">is threatened<span data-preserver-spaces="true">. We thank the lawmakers who took the time to clearly point out that bikers have a right to use our <span data-preserver-spaces="true">nation's<span data-preserver-spaces="true"> roadways!
<span data-preserver-spaces="true">Happy May, Ride Safe and Ride Free
