As the summer approaches and area schools prepare to close, motorists are urged to use extra caution in order to reduce the number of injuries on Perry-area streets.
The issue of bicycle and skateboard safety is often raised by members of the Perry City Council, who urge cyclists to always use a headlamp and wear reflective clothing when riding at night.
Skateboarders are also encouraged to make themselves visible to motorists and to keep to established skate paths.
