Anderson, Bailey, Walker, Prezioso, McKenzie, Ball, Deem, McCabe
and Dawson)
Requesting the Governor proclaim May as "Motorcycle Awareness and
Safety Month".
Whereas, All West Virginians are concerned with safety on our
highways; and
Whereas, In order to help keep our highways safe, every driver
must realize that our highways are utilized by many modes of
transportation; and
Whereas, One mode of transportation on our highways is
motorcycles. This form of transportation has also become a hobby
to many West Virginians who enjoy the open roadway; and
Whereas, That motorcycles are prevalent on our highways should
cause our citizens to exercise caution by using simple safety
techniques, such as looking twice before proceeding, always using
turn signals and using common courtesy; and
Whereas, This awareness will help save lives on West
Virginia's roadways; therefore, be it
Resolved by the Senate:
That the Senate hereby requests the Governor to proclaim May
as "Motorcycle Awareness and Safety Month"; and, be it
Further Resolved, That the Clerk is hereby directed to forward
a copy of this resolution to the Governor.
