The safest way to use your bike is for transportation, not play. Every year, about 300,000 kids go to the emergency department because of bike injuries, and at least 10,000kids have injuries that require a few days in the hospital. Some of these injuries are so serious that children die, usually from head injuries.A head injury can mean brain injury. That’s why it’s so important to wear your bike helmet(头盔).Wearing one doesn’t mean you can be reckless(不顾危险的),but a helmet will provide some protection for your face ,head , and brain in case you fall down. Your bike helmet should fit you properly. You shouldn’t buy it too small or too big. Never wear a hat u nder your bike helmet. If you are unsure if your helmet fits you well, ask someone at a bike store.Wearing bright clothes also can help you stay safe. It helps other people on the road see you. And if they see you, that means they are less likely to run into you. Daytime riding is the safest so try to avoid riding your bike at dusk and later. But avoid wearing headphones because the music can distract(使…分心)you from noises around you, such as a car blowing its horn(喇叭)so you can get out of the way.You need to check with your mom and dad about where you’re allowed to ride your bike. You need to know how far you’re allowed to go and whether you should rid e on the sidewalk or in the street. Kids younger than 10 years should ride on the sidewalk and avoid the street. No matter where you ride ,you need to keep an eye out for cars and trucks. Even if you’re just riding on the sidewalk ,a car may pull out of it s driveway into the path of your bike.
