Motorcycle Safety Awareness Month - May 2025
Society for Injured Riders (SIR)™ - Safety Awareness
May is Motorcycle Awareness Safety Month
The Society for Injured Riders (SIR)™ is a not-for-profit society staffed solely by volunteers. We are a group of volunteers promoting safe riding and committed to assisting riders who have been injured by a motorcycle accident.
With the arrival of warmer and drier weather, motorcycle enthusiasts are preparing their bikes by fine-tuning engines and polishing chrome, ready to embark on scenic rides.
May is Motorcycle Awareness Safety Month. Each day in May, safety awareness tips will be posted for motorcycle riders, passengers, and vehicle drivers. No single post prioritizes safety more than another. Each one is designed to help us with aspects of riding or driving that we may overlook. We all have families and loved ones to return to each day, and if any of the tips can help us achieve that, it is a valuable contribution.

The use of motorcycles and off-highway vehicles not only encourages British Columbians to enjoy the province’s network of roads and trails, but to serve as a key form of transportation for daily use, generate critical tourism activity and contribute to British Columbia’s overall economic output. **Off-highway vehicles include motocross, dirt and adventure motorcycles, all-terrain vehicles (ATVs), and side-by-sides.
