May is Motorcycle and Bike Safety Awareness Month From Erin G. Eggen Frankfort, KY - Whether you ride, pedal or drive, Kentuckians are reminded during National Motorcycle and Bike Safety Awareness Month to watch out for each other as spring weather draws more highway users across the state. "We typically see more and more motorcycles and bicycles riding along with us this time of year," said Gov. Andy Beshear. "And we encourage everyone to share the road so that we all make it to our destination safely - every trip, every time." The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet's (KYTC) Office of Highway Safety (KOHS) is joining the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) to remind all road users to work together to help prevent crashes, injuries and deaths on Kentucky roadways. A motorcycle or bicycle is a vehicle with all of the rights and responsibilities of any motor vehicle; however, as one of the smallest vehicles on the road, a motorcycle or bicycle may be in a vehicle's blind spots.
