Why should you avoid riding too close to the curb?

Explanation:
Keeping a bit of space from the curb creates a safety buffer for surprises. Pedestrians can suddenly step out from the sidewalk or curb into your path, and being too close leaves you less time to react. The gutter area also collects debris—gravel, glass, leaves—that can cause a slip or a tire issue if you ride over it. So, staying a safe distance from the curb gives you room to maneuver around people and objects and reduces the chance of problems from debris.
