BIKE SAFETY — May is National Bike Safety Month and Homewood police posted a reminder that motorists should slow down when they see cyclists on the road. “Bicyclists are most often killed by drivers who strike them with the front of their vehicle at high speeds. Avoid tragedy: Slow down, drive sober and don’t drive distracted.”
