Furthermore, motorcyclists should be aware of the risks of being hit by a vehicle, particularly when riding in areas with high traffic volume. Being visible to other road users is crucial, and motorcyclists can take steps to increase their visibility, such as wearing brightly colored gear or using reflective strips on their motorcycle.

Wearing a helmet is crucial in preventing head injuries, which can be fatal. A helmet can help absorb the impact of a crash, reducing the risk of head trauma. In Malaysia, wearing a helmet is mandatory for all motorcyclists, and it's essential to ensure that the helmet meets the required safety standards.

Riding near the edge of the road (tepi) can be particularly hazardous, as it increases the risk of being hit by a vehicle or losing control of the motorcycle. Motorcyclists should exercise caution when riding near the edge of the road and avoid weaving in and out of traffic.
