IN THE midst of the increasingly dense number of motorized vehicles in Indonesia, the practice of safety riding is one of the things that the government and various parties continue to emphasize. The reason is, based on a report released by the Indonesian Police Traffic Corps, since January-October 2021 alone there have been more than 80,000 cases of traffic accidents that occurred.
To reduce this number, motorists must continue to tighten safety riding as the main guideline in driving, especially for motorcycle riders who continue to increase.
According to Kiky Sugiharto, INVENTZO’s Online Business Manager, said we understand that driving safety is the number one priority. As a local motorcycle apparel brand, motorized vehicle users can complete a variety of driving equipment that is not only concerned with comfort but also safety.
“We hope that our apparel collection can minimize the risk of driving so that motorcyclists can drive comfortably and protected. To further encourage public participation in safety riding, we also provide practical and economical transactions through cashback promos of up to 100% with payment using ShopeePay,” Kiky said.
Kiky also explained, well, for those of you who often drive using a motorbike, here are three main things that need to be considered in order to stay safe when driving:
(1). Check important components and do not underestimate the physical condition of the motorbike
The first step before riding a motorbike is to always check the condition of the motorbike before traveling. Some components that need to be considered are the condition of the tire air, radiator, motorcycle lights, brakes, and motorcycle chain. Make sure these components are in good condition to avoid vehicle accidents.
To stay awake, carry a tool kit with you wherever you go to anticipate unwanted problems. Don’t forget to check the oil regularly so that the motor doesn’t break down on the road.
(2). Not only helmets, use extra protective equipment for body and hands.
You must be quite familiar with the obligation to use a helmet labeled with the Indonesian National Standard (SNI) while driving. Helmet serves to protect the head from the risk of collision in the event of an accident and is able to protect the eyes from dust, wind, or other objects.
In addition to the head and face area, you can also provide more protection against other body parts that are susceptible to exposure, such as the body and hands. This is also important to note because motorcycles do not have a closed body like a car, so the risk of accidents for motorcyclists is relatively greater.
“A wide range of riding apparel is available at INVENTZO to give you extra protection. Among them are weathershield jackets or riding vests that can protect the body from the wind,” he said.
He added, some of these products are also accompanied by reflective accents that reflect light when the vehicle headlights shine on you so that you stay safe and visible when driving at night. In addition, riding gloves are also present to protect fingers and palms when a crash occurs, as well as balaclavas and helmet caps so that head hygiene is always maintained.
(3). Focus on the safety of yourself and others
It’s time to ride! If you have applied the things above, you need to stay wise when riding a motorbike to safely arrive at your destination. Surely, you have often heard to obey traffic signs and driving rules.
In addition to this, we must also be more concerned with the safety of ourselves and others when driving by not using a smartphone while driving, focusing on the road, using the appropriate turn signal code, and maintaining a safe distance.
If you are driving, do not light a cigarette because it can interfere with concentration and cigarette ash can harm other drivers. The road is not only owned by yourself, so use the road that is intended for motorbikes and don’t break through to the sidewalk, yes, riders!
Those are the steps that must be taken by motorcyclists in implementing safety riding. Don’t have a variety of equipment to protect you while driving? Don’t worry, you can visit INVENTZO.id and find the equipment you need to make your driving safer.
