Almost All Foreseeable and Preventable! Nearly 700,000 Emergency Room Visits in 8 years. The Micromobility Safety Revolution by Young Drivers library_booksBook Series mobile_friendlyMicro-Courses

Crashes aren’t accidents.

They’re patterns - and patterns can be trained out.

Riders are hurt in recognizable, recurring ways: the fall, the surface hazard, the intersection conflict, the unseen rider. For over five decades, we’ve taught more than 1.4 million people to read a road and avoid a collision before it forms. Now we’re bringing that training to two wheels.
