Lawton, OK – The Lawton Police Department Motor Unit has joined forces with Oklahoma Highway Safety to raise awareness about motorcycle safety in southwest Oklahoma.
The initiative aims to promote safe riding practices and educate all road users on how to reduce motorcycle-related fatalities and injuries.
Officials emphasize that cooperation between motorcyclists and drivers is essential for road safety.
Due to their smaller size and lower visibility, motorcycles present unique challenges for drivers, who must be aware of practices like downshifting and weaving.
Understanding these behaviors can help prevent accidents and ensure safer interactions on the road.
The campaign encourages both motorcyclists and drivers to take an active role in promoting road safety.
Those interested in registering for the program can contact **tanner.josey@lawtonok.gov** for more information.
For updates and additional details, the public is encouraged to follow the Lawton Police Department on social media.
