OCPD REMINDING CITIZENS TO BE ALERT ON ROADWAYS DURING BIKEFEST
Next weekend, September 12 – 15, 2013, Ocean City will see an increased number of motorcyclists as bikers make their way to Ocean City for this year’s OC BikeFest Motorcycle Rally. OC BikeFest will take place at various locations throughout Ocean City. The Ocean City Police Department is reminding citizens of a few important safety tips to keep in mind during this weekend’s event:
Be aware of motorcycle traffic. Often time’s people cannot see motorcycles because of blind spots in their mirror. Be extra cautious of this when driving, especially when changing lanes.
If you see any criminal activity including racing or dangerous driving, try to get a good description of the vehicle and person. If you are not driving, try to write down the tag number and call the police.
An increased number of bikes is an understatement.I live app 100 yards from Rt 50.Last year I thought we were having an earthquake during the bike event.There are literally tens of thousands of bike enthusiasts.
LOL-I live approx. 1 mile by way of the crow flying off of Rt. 54 and heard the bikes. I am by no means a motorcycle enthusiast (the thought of not being surrounded by the metal of a vehicle scares me) but I thought it was neat! It was a constant rumble all weekend long.
Ugghh...I live about a half of a mile from route 50 in west Ocean City and the noise is ridiculous. We can forget sleeping that weekend. I wish Ocean City would not promote this event.
