12. Observe and yield the right of way.
13. Never ride your bicycle while under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
14. If possible, avoid riding in bad weather, when visibility is obscured, at dawn, dusk or in the dark, or when extremely tired. Each of these
conditions increases the risk of accident.
15. Install a full-coverage rear fender on the lead bicycle to avoid throwing road debris onto the trailer cycle rider.
CAUTION: Check reflectors and their mounting brackets regularly to make sure that they are clean, straight, unbroken and securely
mounted. Have your local REI store or a professional bike mechanic replace damaged reflectors and straighten or tighten any that are
bent or loose.
WARNING: Do not remove the reflectors or reflector brackets from your Afterburner. Removing the reflectors may reduce your visibility to
others using the roadway.
C. Do Not Use the Afterburner for Off-Road Riding
Use the Afterburner only on level, well-maintained paved surfaces, and do not ride on rough terrain or uneven roads or surfaces with a trailer cycle.
The bumping and jostling could knock the passenger off the trailer cycle and damage the hitch attachment.
D. Do Not Use the Afterburner in Inclement Weather
Do not use the Afterburner in reduced visibility or on reduced traction surfaces. This includes any surface affected by rain, snow, ice or loose
roadway materials, etc.
WARNING: Wet weather impairs traction, braking and visibility, both for the bicyclist and for other vehicles sharing the road. The risk of
an accident is dramatically increased in wet conditions.
E. Do Not Use the Afterburner for Night Riding
Riding a bicycle at night is many times more dangerous than riding during the day because a cyclist can be very difficult for motorists and pedestrians
to see. Do not use the Afterburner at dawn, at dusk or at night.
WARNING: Riding at dawn, dusk or at night, or at other times of poor visibility, even with an adequate bicycle lighting system and even
with reflectors can be dangerous because drivers may not see the trailer cycle or, if they do, recognize that it is part of the lead cycle and
carrying a passenger.
