           SUMMARY  :   Proclaims May 2013 as Motorcycle Awareness Month.   
          Specifically,  this resolution  makes the following legislative  
          findings:

          1)In 1987, the State of California initiated a statewide,  
            multifaceted motorcycle safety program designed to promote  
            safety through the education and training of novice motorcycle  
            riders.

          2)Beginning in 2008, the California Highway Patrol partnered  
            with public and private motorcycle safety stakeholder  
            organizations to develop a comprehensive effort to address a  
            steep, 10-year increase in motorcycle fatalities and injuries  
            on the state's roadways.

          3)During the month of May, the California Motorcyclist Safety  
            Program, the California Highway Patrol, and national, state,  
            and local motorcycle safety organizations will join together  
            in an effort to increase awareness by motorcyclists and  
            motorists of the need to coexist in California's roadways.
