Tips for safe cycling:
Be lit! Wear or carry a light at dusk, in low light or poor weather.
Wear white, bright, reflective clothing. 
Cross with care. Make eye contact with drivers and wait until traffic has stopped before you cross.
Pay attention. Avoid distractions like listening to music.
Be predictable. Use bike lanes, shoulders and yield to pedestrians on multi-use paths.
Heads up at intersections! 
Stop, look and listen! Look both ways. 
Only cycle in crosswalks that have cycle signals or signs with the bike image included.
Sidewalk versus Street Riding
The safest place for bicycle riding is on the street, where bicycles are expected to follow the same rules of the road as motorists and ride in the same direction.
- Children less than 10 years old, however, are not mature enough to make the decisions necessary to safely ride in the street.
- Children less than 10 years old are better off riding on the sidewalk.
- For anyone riding on a sidewalk:
- Check the law in your province or jurisdiction to make sure sidewalk riding is allowed.
- Watch for vehicles coming out of or turning into driveways.
- Stop at corners of sidewalks and streets to look for cars and to make sure the drivers see you before crossing.
- Enter a street at a corner and not between parked cars. Alert pedestrians that you are near by saying, “Excuse me,” or, “Passing on your left,” or use a bell or horn.
