Look out!
Watch out!
You don't want to hit me and we know that's not in doubt, 'cause your car or SUV is so big it'll knock the socks right off of me.
Bicycling season is here so let’s share the road and watch out for each other. Drivers give cyclists plenty of space as you pass. Cyclists ride as far to the right as you safely can.
EASY!
So you look out for me, and I'll watch out for you.
The North Dakota DOT reminds you to drive safe and bike safe.

Safe Routes to School

• North Dakota Safe Routes to School

Safe Routes to School (SRTS) is a program that enables and encourages children, including those with disabilities, to walk and bicycle to school. It will make walking and bicycling to school a safe and more appealing transportation option.

The Safe Routes to Schools Program (SRTS) was established in August 2005 as part of the Federal Highway Transportation Bill and is intended to benefit children in elementary and middle schools (K-8).
