According to Quebec’s Highway Safety Code, cyclists must always carry a white reflector in the front of their bikes as well as a red one in the back.
Police say those who don’t comply with the rule will be let off with a warning and provided the necessary equipment.
Officers will also be answering people’s questions about bike safety and regulations.
