Turn both your head and your shoulders to get a better look.

Turn just your head, not your shoulders.

Use only your mirrors.

Only move your eyes, not your head.

When turning, look through the turn to where you want to go. Turn just your head, not your shoulders, and keep your eyes level with the horizon.

16. When traveling on a motorcycle with a sidecar, the passenger should ride:

On the motorcycle seat.

In the sidecar.

Either on the motorcycle or in the sidecar.

Neither on the motorcycle or in the sidecar.

If your motorcycle has a sidecar, it is best for your passenger to ride in the sidecar. They should keep their hands inside the sidecar at all times.

17. If another driver is following you too closely, it is best to:

Not worry about them.

Change lanes and let them pass.

Speed up.

Get off the roadway.

The best way to deal with a tailgater is to get them in front of you. If you can do so safely, change lanes and let them pass. Increasing your speed may only encourage the driver to tailgate you at a higher speed.

18. When approaching an uneven surface, such as a bump or pothole, you should rise slightly off of your seat:

So you can jump off the motorcycle if you need to.

So your legs can absorb the shock.

So other drivers can see you better.

So you can get a better view of the uneven surface.

When riding over an uneven surface, rising off of your seat will allow your joints to absorb some of the force of impact. This will make it less likely that the impact of the surface will throw you off of the motorcycle.
