Bicycles -- Bicyclists are now required to wear reflective vests and helmets approved by ANSI or Snell while riding on government streets and roadways.
Accidents -- Report all traffic accidents and remain at the scene until police arrive to investigate. If there is an injury, death or $500 worth of damage to any person's property, make a full written report of the accident within 24 hours. Be sure to contact your insurance company as well.
Photography -- Cameras may be brought into the housing areas on base and retained in quarters without a camera pass.
