Bike Walk Mississippi is dedicated to promoting bicycle safety for ALL! This fall, we will launch a new statewide education campaign focused on teaching motorists and law enforcement about bicycle safety laws and the importance of (and legal allowance for) vehicles changing lanes (when it is safe to do so) in order to safely pass a bicyclist on the road.

We are also looking for places that might welcome these trainings including the police academy and other officer trainings, driver's education courses and other workshops that might benefit from bicycle safety education. We welcome your suggestions of other places we might offer these trainings and are happy to partner with bike shops or clubs to help increase bicycle safety efforts in Mississippi!
