Safety is a two-way street. We’re all responsible for keeping each other safe on our roads. On March 1 the Florida Department of Transportation kicked off #FloridaBicycleMonth. This provides an opportunity to encourage bicycling and recognize its important role in providing transportation and recreation to millions of people. It also provides an opportunity to highlight the rules and regulations necessary to help keep it a safe and fun activity.  

Trenda McPherson, Bicycle and Pedestrian Safety Program Manager with the Florida Department of Transportation's Traffic Safety Office, and Melissa Wandall, Campaign Ambassador for Alert Today Florida, are here to talk to us about prioritizing the safety, accessibility and mobility of bicyclists. Bike safety and sharing the road with drivers is more important now than ever.
