FAQ
Q1. What can I learn in Hazard Prediction Training (KYT) for cyclists?
A. You can learn about the dangers specific to bicycles, such as coming into contact with pedestrians on the sidewalk and being hit by vehicles turning right or left at intersections. While cyclists have a low awareness of the risk of accidents, they can also become perpetrators, and the amount of compensation for accidents is increasing every year, so it is important for them to develop a solid hazard prediction ability.
Q2. For whom is Hazard Prediction Training for cyclists recommended?
A. It is recommended for people who commute to work or school by bicycle, and for parents who want to educate their children about safety. It is to predict approaching vehicles and accidents involving a turn while driving into a roadway, helping to prevent accidents. This is also suitable as a learning opportunity to help prevent accidents among junior and senior high school students, who are prone to bicycle accidents.
