Bicycle Safety: Some basic bicycling safety tips

The Bicycle Mobility Advisory Committee (BMAC) was established by the San Antonio-Bexar County Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) Transportation Policy Board in 1995. The committee's purpose is to improve bicycle mobility within the San Antonio-Bexar County MPO Study Area. BMAC's vision is for the region to be distinguished as a place where cyclists can safely travel on and off-road and cycling is recognized as a clean, healthy, and affordable form of transportation and recreation.

The Regional Safety Program represents a significant step forward in transportation safety planning in that it uses the Texas Department of Transportation's (TxDOT) Crash Records Information System (CRIS) database.
