Answer
Coastal Highway carries buses, delivery trucks, and tourist traffic at speed—many families prefer Boardwalk morning rides or calmer side streets over long MD 528 stretches with kids. Use lights, helmets, and predictable hand signals if you must ride the highway corridor. Consider municipal bus hops instead of multi-mile highway legs with inexperienced riders.
