CUARnrLD Concern for the Mldy of t'uh'l muiortyUiiii ha prompted several resident la lake action. tcnnn Huff and Ted Gregory, volunteer from Ihc Utah Motorcy- tie Association, are making every effort lo educate dnms about safe ' ly interacting with motorcycle. Huff, a Layton resident, and Gregory, who live in Ilain Cny, are only two of the dozen volunteers who participate in the UMVs ''Share the Road" program. They lake the safety message to civic groups, driver education classes and anywhere else they arc asked. "We would come to church if .they asked us to, said Huff. So far the main thrust of the group has been to prepare driver education . students to notice and respect motorcyclists. The two have given their presentation to students from Weber County schools, Davis High, and most recently, Clearfield High. The response has been good, said rdfuff. "From the comments the students have been giving, we can tell were reaching them," he said. "I'm doing this to stay alive," ; -- said Huff, "i want to live another r.day ; Huff and Gregory also teach mo- torcyde courses at Weber State University. They said it was through those classes that the "Share the Road program came into being. "We would be teaching cyclists about safety, and they would idi us that the moionsit were the ones we needed to talk to," said Huff. "Thats what this program is. The program is for drivers who may never set foot on a motorcycle. Gregory said that 123,000 drivers were licensed for motorcycle use in Utah last year. That number was. an increase of 3,000 from the previous year. The numbers are expected to increase by another 3,000 this year as well "With so many bikers on the road, safety is more important than ever," said Gregory. "When a car and a motorcycle are in an accident, the car's driver is at fault about 70 percent of the umc," said to Ihto I Dcmb menu lor Osvts County a ra: ( hot ce oj i rural and UkM seneJ daily nh breakfast.
