Motorcycle season has officially begun. Pedestrians, cyclists, and motorcycle riders also share the roadways with all vehicle operators on a daily basis. Be cautious when operating your vehicle around pedestrians, cyclists, and motorcycle riders.
Tips to help you drive safely when there are motorcycles on the road:
- A motorcycle rider needs the whole lane to travel safely. Don’t overtake or drive in the same lane.
- When you are behind someone riding a motorcycle, keep extra space between your motor vehicle and the motorcycle as they may stop very quickly.
- Be alert that poor weather and road conditions could make the motorcycle rider lose control easily.
Tips for the ideal motorcycle insurance:
Choose a smaller or less expensive bike
Motorcycles that are smaller or older tend to have less powerful engines. Therefore, insurance will be less expensive. This might not be the case with rare or classic bikes though.
Avoid modified and unusual motorcycles
Having a motorcycle with lots of modifications will make your premiums more expensive. They make your bike more expensive to repair, replace, and attract thieves.
Pay annually
Paying your insurance in full is cheaper than by monthly installments because you won’t pay interest or finance arrangement fees.
Park somewhere safe
Keep your motorcycle in a secure location. This lowers the chances of your motorcycle being stolen or damaged and could reduce the cost of your insurance.
Consider who rides your bike
Having a young or inexperienced rider on your policy means paying more, but adding an experienced rider could help cut costs.
