Motorcyclists; Caution on roads

La Sureté du Québec of the MRC Pontiac advise that during the weekend, motorcyclists are more likely to use the road and highways. The Sûreté du Québec reminds everyone to be vigilant and offer motorcyclists of safety tips.

Motorcyclists are among the most vulnerable road users because they are less visible and have little protection. Since the beginning of the season, 16 fatal motorcycle collisions have occurred on the roads served by the Sûreté du Québec with 17 motorcyclists fatalities overall.

For additional information regarding protective equipment and requirements to pass the motorcycles mechanical inspection, the public is invited to visit the website of the Société de l’assurance automobile du Québec.
