What should you do if there are obstacles on the road while riding?

In situations where there are obstacles on the road while riding, the safest and most prudent action is to slow down, assess the situation, and navigate carefully. This approach allows you to maintain control of your motorcycle and make informed decisions.

By slowing down, you gain time to evaluate the obstacles and plan your route around them. If you simply maintain your current speed, you risk losing control or crashing, especially if the obstacles are significant or unpredictable. Swerving without checking can lead to dangerous situations, such as losing balance or colliding with another vehicle or hazard. Stopping immediately, while it might seem safe, can also lead to accidents, particularly if riders behind you are unaware of your sudden stop.

Navigating obstacles carefully with reduced speed enhances both your safety and that of other road users, allowing you to respond appropriately to changing conditions.
