WHEREAS, The safe operation of a motorcycle requires the use |
|
|
of special skills developed through a combination of training, |
|
|
expertise, the use of good judgment, and a thorough knowledge of |
|
|
traffic laws and licensing requirements; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, With the onset of warmer weather, the number of |
|
|
motorcycles on our streets and highways increases dramatically; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Motorcyclists and motorcycle interest groups |
|
|
continue to demonstrate support for motorcycle safety programs |
|
|
offered for both beginning and advanced riders; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, During the month of May 2011, motorcycle |
|
|
organizations nationwide will hold various events to promote |
|
|
Motorcycle Safety and Awareness Month with the intention of raising |
|
|
public awareness of motorcycling and motorcycle riders; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, This initiative is a commendable step toward |
|
|
creating a better understanding of the ways that Texas motorists |
|
|
can safely share the road with one another and will help reduce |
|
|
hazardous situations on our streets and highways throughout the |
|
|
year; now, therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 82nd Texas |
|
|
Legislature hereby recognize May 2011 as Motorcycle Safety and |
|
|
Awareness Month and urge all members of the motoring public to |
|
|
support this worthwhile event. |
