Bike Safety Training Hits Schools | San Diego News

San Dieguito Union High School District is launching a new bike safety initiative this year, requiring students to complete training before bringing bikes to school — and earning them special tags for safe commutes. Over 2,700 middle schoolers already got trained by the San Diego County Bike Coalition, who stress critical skills like visibility, traffic rules, and helmet use — especially as e-bikes grow in popularity. With local cities setting different e-bike rules, this program aims to unify safety standards across all ages and modes of transport. Parents are encouraged to model predictable driving behavior to reinforce road safety at home. The Coalition also offers advanced 3-hour city cycling classes — next up Saturday, August 22, at 1 PM in Encinitas.
