🚲E-BIKE SAFETY AWARENESS🚲

As we head into the summer months and see more bicycles, motorcycles, and other traffic on our roads, South Central Fire District , along with our friends at the Wayne County Sheriff , would like to share some important safety reminders to help keep our roads and community safe.

Whether you're riding through town or traveling on county roads, please remember to:

✔️ Wear a helmet
