Cops ahead:
This is one of the most important signals for any motorcycle rider. If you are
riding and happen to pass a speed trap, you can warn other riders behind you
taking your left hand and tapping the top of your helmet a couple of times.
That way the rider behind you can slow down and avoid getting a speeding
ticket. Riders helping other riders! Let your fellow riders know about police
activity up the road by patting the top of your helmet with your left palm. Keep
our communities' police officers and other first responders safe. Use caution
and respect all laws when riding your motorcycle.
Most motorcycle hand signals are fairly intuitive, especially when combined with appropriate body
language; however, new riders may be confused upon first seeing them. When proper signalling is crucial
to safety, like during large group rides or track days, important hand signals should be communicated
during a pre-ride meeting. Learning these important signals when riding will allow you to communicate
with other riders on the road and hopefully avoid any dangerous situations that can occur. By doing this,
you will feel more safe and confident riding on the road.
