CYCLING IN TUNNELS
The safest measure in tunnel crossings is visible, written warnings activated by a button notifying of a cyclist crossing. What can be done in tunnels that do not have this safety tool, which are found in only a few tunnels in our country?
Suggestions that can increase safety in tunnel crossings:
- The most effective is not to use the tunnel if there is another option.
- The most suitable time can be chosen by observing vehicles and their speeds at the tunnel entrance.
- Reflective clothing is used.
- All lights are activated; front lights can be directed to the side or even the back.
- The crossing can be completed at the highest possible speed.
