To minimize the probability of traffic accidents, stay alert. Slowing down could also give you more time and space to stop abruptly if circumstances demand it. Watch for bicyclists in the bike lane and provide them with enough room. Cyclists should also wear a helmet to protect themselves should an accident occur.
