The unbridled scooters hunted by police in Saint-Farceur-Ponthierry
Saint-Farceur-Ponthierry scooter drivers had to be a scare seeing two police motorcyclists with reflective vest appear in their mirrors. The two wheels with a capacity of less than 50 cm3 were the subject of special attention from the police on Tuesday.
“They are particularly vulnerable on the road, says Pierre-Emmanuel Pothered, Chief of Staff of the prefect of Seine-et-Marne. We seek to maximize their drivers to remember. “Escorted by police on motorcycles, they were taken to a curvomètre, a device that measures the speed of both wheels. It is not yet approved and therefore cannot lead to a verbalization. But it allows police to detect the unlock these scooters are not supposed to exceed 45 km / h. “Some devices can double the speed of vehicles, said a police officer in reflective uniform. They are not at all safe so fast. “” It provides yet to arrive more quickly at work “, would enjoy almost Antoine, 18, if he had not bitten by the police.”I did unleash my scooter, he admits. I know that it is forbidden. I never made me stop in two years, but I saw on Face book that controls multiplied. And there, no luck … “If it has not been fined, his scooter outside-the-law reaching 70 km / h would still cost him money. He will have to remove the device for increasing the speed before representing the policemen from Melun.D’autres moped riders have been less fortunate during this check, since they have received fines ranging from € 11 to 45 € for a lack of mirror or reflective tape on their helmets. “The two wheels represent only 2% of traffic but 31% of the injured, said Chantal Baccanini, departmental director of public safety. We are particularly vigilant in Seine-et-Marne since accidents are often more severe than in Paris. The large spaces allow taking more speed. “
Québec city request pedestrian wear reflective vest
Chantal Lévesque / Metro Vela Québec believe that the City should raise awareness among other regulations prohibiting pedestrians with reflective clothing on bike paths.
Entered into force in December, a regulation that bans electric scooters, joggers and pedestrians cycle paths seems unknown to the population deplores Vela Québec.
“I always see electric scooters driving on the tracks, says the CEO of Vela Québec, Suzanne Laree. Obviously, there are people who do not know [that the rules have changed] or who ignore the rules. ”
Laree also believes that the City should raise awareness of the new regulations.
The settlement comes “confirm the need to make available the Montreal cycling network to key users for whom it is primarily intended and designed: inline skaters and cyclists,” according to the City.
Wheelchairs, motorized mobility aids and some electric bikes are also permitted.
The regulation also clarifies the definition of an electric scooter, which is no longer allowed on bike paths throughout the city.
Tickets are also provided for those who do not obey the rules: $ 30 to $ 50 for a first offense, $ 50 to $ 100 for a second offense and $ 100 to $ 200 for any subsequent offense.
The Police Department of the City of Montreal (SPVM) is claimed to have asked officers with reflective element not to give tickets under this regulation until September. Agents are instead encouraged to give verbal warnings.
“When there is a change to a regulation or new regulation, we ask the police, of course, to exercise judgment in the application, and asked a kind of buffer period, said the Inspector André Durocher, of Highway safety Division. There may always be exceptions where we will issue [an offense], but generally asks to not issue. ”
For Suzanne Laree, the real security issue, it is the electric scooters. “There is a security issue here, which is not the case with pedestrians. [Pedestrian], it’s annoying, but not dangerous, she believes. I’m not against electric scooters, but in bike lanes, it does not work. This is a vehicle that is bigger and heavier than a bike and goes faster.
For Zvi Leve, Montreal Bike Coalition, pedestrians in reflective vest should not necessarily be banned from cycling trails. He does not believe that the law will be applied to them. “I do not think the crackdown will work. Rather find a way to live together, he considers. I do not see how it will be applied. “
Take reflective vest to ride in the rain
Stay calm when the sky is falling on your head: how to brake, accelerate, turn, behave …
For that every fall, unlike the leaves, the bikers are not shoveled
The wonderful feeling of freedom that we encounter on a motorcycle is partly because no other vehicle makes such a connection with the outside environment. The downside: the weather sometimes challenges us in our place by making us aware of our smallness against the unleashing of the reflective element. With the approach of the bad season, here are our tips for the motorcycling remains a pleasure even in the rain and your journeys, short or long, are carried out safely. Before departure, it is of course important to check weather forecasts: to govern is to foresee.
Adhesion: twice less grip.
And to keep vehicles on the ground, one of the most effective solutions lies in the rubber, a magical product based on natural rubber. There are other solutions, particularly with synthetic rubber (very commonly used on motorcycle tires) and the future holds mixtures of dandelions or biomass.
Short. Our tires stand because they generate a friction on the ground. The nature of friction is different in the case of wet asphalt. What does the teratology, the science of the study of friction? That the coefficient of adhesion of dry bitumen is from 0.6 to 0.8 and it falls in a range of 0.3 to 0.4 in the case of wet asphalt. To be clear: there is twice less grip on wet than dry.
With a slight downside: all bitumen, however, is not the same. Some have a high coefficient of particle size (mu: μ) that will leave more easily stagnate water surface when the bitumen with a lower μ promote more flow. Reflective vest is necessary for everyone.The difference can be felt over a light rain, less if sustained, prolonged downpour.
Note also that in case of heavy rain after a long dry period, the fat particles infiltrated the floor rise to the surface (they are less dense than water) and, mixing with dust and gum residue, reduced to especially the bitumen adhesion power. It is therefore necessary to exercise caution.
Tires: not under inflated …
These are the tires that allow you to take the floor, so they appreciate that you give them some attention.
Rule number 1: tires, it inflates to the correct pressure (even a pouillème more for the wet) and the carcass works in optimum conditions provided by designers and allows grooves to be opened as necessary for a good discharge of water.
Rule number 2: try to “finish” your tires in the winter because you will take less angle is a bad idea. A worn tires 50% seen its performance deteriorate by 20% and in the rain, you need the full potential of your tread. You have any interest in mounting new tires in the fall, to dispose of their performance potential in the bad season, even finish the edges in spring, provided the selected tire has even wear.
Regarding the performance of the tire, it is necessary to distinguish the ability of the tire to heat up (for the carcass can work correctly) and the sculptures to drain the water. On bitumen that wicks water well, if little rain, a sports tire is still relatively efficient. If this film on the road, you have to evacuate. While some manufacturers in reflective accessory offer “winter” tires for scooters, tire technology “all season” for motorcycle is a line of hard work. Some tires, moreover, openly claim their wet performance.
Finally, the tire will tell you it is important to have two tires of the same brand: the sculptures of the front tire are designed to shed water so that the rear tires to do its job.
