Riding a motorcycle safely requires that your mental and physical skills are fully part of the experience. You should not attempt to operate a motor vehicle, especially one with two wheels, if you are tired or under the influence of alcohol or other drugs.

If you are tired or under the influence of alcohol or other drugs, please do not ride your motorcycle.
