Equipment
According to the Highway Traffic Act, your bicycle MUST be equipped with:
- a bell or horn in good working order
- at least one braking system on the rear wheel capable of skidding that wheel on dry, level pavement
- a white front light (visible from a distance of at least 150 metres)
- a red rear light or red rear reflector
- two strips of white reflective tape on front forks (each strip to be 125mm by 25mm)
- two strips of red reflective tape on rear forks
These lighting requirements are mandatory if you are riding between 1/2 hour before sunset and 1/2 hour after sunrise, or anytime visibility has been reduced to the point where you cannot see 150 metres ahead.
