SGI wants to make sure motorcycle riders are safe on the roads this spring and summer.
That includes anything from wearing the proper clothing to keeping an eye out for hazards such as potholes and loose gravel. “We recommend they avoid riding side by side, they should each take a single lane and move around regularly in that lane so they are visible to motorists.” says SGI’s Tyler McMurchy.
He also says other motorists on the roads are encouraged to pay extra attention and keep an eye out for motorcycles.
Things such as double checking before switching lanes and looking twice before turning, especially while turning left are encouraged says McMurchy.
Motorcycle riders are also reminded to wear the required clothing while riding. Below is a link with all the required clothing for riding.

Have Your Say

When you receive your carbon tax rebate by direct deposit have you ever not known where it came from, regardless of how it was identified on your statement?

The Candian government wants the country’s banks to identify, in customers’ bank statements when they receive the carbon rebate, that it is labelled as such.

Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault says the lack of a clear identifier is contributing to confusion about carbon price rebates, so he is going to change the law if he has to in order to force the big banks to identify the carbon rebate by name when doing direct deposits.

The first rebate deposits in 2022 were labelled very generically, which meant recipients had no idea why they were getting the money.

T-D and B-MO have adopted the government’s requested “CdaCarbonRebate” entry, R-B-C and Scotiabank say they couldn’t make the change in time for the rollout, and C-I-B-C is still calling it “Deposit Canada.”
