WE BIKE has been a national leader in bicycle law enforcement training since 1995 when it created the two-day Enforcement for Bicycle Safety (EBS) course for the Wisconsin Department of Transportation. This course was designed to give law enforcement officers the basic bicycle safety information needed to manage traffic and provide a safe bicycling environment in their communities.
In 2006, EBS was updated and modified by WE BIKE to include pedestrian safety information and the course was renamed as the Pedestrian & Bicycle Law Enforcement Training course . The course contains information in the following areas: What, Where, When, How, Who & Why of Walking and Bicycling, Highway Safety Triangle, Engineering, Bicycle Environment Audit, How Pedestrian & Bicycle Crashes Happen, Education, Pedestrian & Bicycle Laws, Enforcement, Pedestrian Safety Enforcement Actions, Crash Investigating & Reporting, Potential Law Enforcement Partners.
Both courses have been taught to officers throughout Wisconsin and nationally and have become models for increasing officer’s subject knowledge as well as their desire to improve pedestrian and bicycle safety through the enforcement of laws.
