Bike ed in action; be seen to be safe.

This compilation tape consists of two programs covering various aspects of bicycle safety. “Bike ed in action” highlights the alarming accident rate among Victorian cyclists and reviews the Bike Education Curriculum Unit which aims to develop positive cycling safety skills. Basic cycling safety measures are demonstrated. “Be seen to be safe” looks at some of the precautions young cyclists must take to ensure that they are seen at night.
