The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) presents information about bike safety in the United States. In 1997, more than half a million persons were injured badly enough to need emergency department care as a result of bike crashes in the United States. The CDC notes that wearing a bike helmet reduces the risk of brain injury from a bike crash by as much as 88%.

The purpose of this Guide is to serve as an informational resource for educators and other interested professionals in planning and developing bicycle safety education programs. The Guide examines 15 existing bicycle safety education programs in the United States and one from Canada. The Guide consists of the following three primary sections: (1) Case Studies - specific examples of how educators have developed bicycle safety programs; (2) Planning Your Program - describes lessons that can be learned from the bicycle safety education programs surveyed in six topic areas: funding your program, bicycle safety education and public schools, developing partnerships, alternative venues/subjects, evaluation methods, and publicity; and (3) Conclusion - summarizes the major issues that should be considered when developing a bicycle safety education course.

Samantha teaches her somewhat clueless neighbor boy Jake how to ride his bicycle safely as they go for a bike ride and get ice cream.

The use of bicycles by police, EMS, and security personnel continues to grow along with increased awareness of the benefits of an extremely mobile team of first responders. While the reasons for implementing a bicycle unit may vary, the goal of each agency is the same: to provide assistance to those who need it as quickly, safely, and effectively as possible. In the past, officers and agencies seeking to get a public safety bike unit rolling had to look far and wide to assemble the necessary information. The Complete Guide to Public Safety Cycling is the single comprehensive source of in-depth information on starting a bike unit or enhancing an established bike unit with tactical and technical tips on everything from basic equipment needs to detailed insights on policy, maintenance, training, legal issues, and much more.
