May 15th, 2010 - May is Motorcycle Awareness Month May is Motorcycle Awareness Month across the nation and the ready made acronym makes it easy to remember; Motorcycles And You. As riders take to the highway in celebration of a new riding season, a gentle reminder from the riding community is heard, “Look Twice, Save a Life.” Bumper stickers, public service announcements and asking your city, county or state for a formal motorcycle awareness month proclamation might make all the difference in saving lives, but another rare treasure lies hidden within the awareness message which is political gold for those of us in the dusty arena of rider’s rights; building a lasting relationship with your lawmakers. The AMA has distributed a video public service announcement to news outlets across the country. Titled "The Distracted Driver," the 30-second video uses a touch of humor to address the serious issue of inattentive drivers. The MSF, in addition to distributing a video news release to television stations nationwide, is also placing videos on YouTube and Break.com, to try to reach younger audiences. The MSF has also produced a short film, "Intersection," that dramatically presents a car-motorcycle collision from the perspective of each of the persons involved. The film is intended for use in driver education courses.
