Free beginner or refresher practice videos

#1 Unread post by flw »

I found a series of free and short videos from U.S. Army for new riders and those wanting some refreshing excercises. See https://safety.army.mil/VIDEOLIBRARY/Vi ... aight.aspx for all the videos.

"safety.army.mil uses an invalid security certificate.

The certificate is not trusted because the issuer certificate is unknown.

(Error code: sec_error_unknown_issuer)"

I got that message too, but I got it to work

I use firefox so it may be different for internet explorer users.

When the message came up there was a button I click that said "make exception", it opened a window and I was given the option to grant access to the web page.


The videos are pretty neat.
Thanks for the link!

One of the options is to "Continue to website". That will work fine in I.E. I have no idea on firefox or Opera or any other browsers.

The issue is a invalid web ceritficate error. The site is registered to the DOD

That was pretty good. Too bad they don't list distances and positions for cones and lines.
