Try to make eye contact with other drivers.

Ride with your headlight on.

Reduce your space cushion.

Ride in a weaving pattern.

To increase your chances of being seen at an intersection, leave your headlight turned on and ride in a lane position that most easily allows oncoming traffic to see you. Maintain a space cushion that allows you to take evasive action if necessary. Never assume that another driver sees you, even if you make eye contact with the driver.

20. Lane sharing is:

Usually prohibited.

Encouraged in areas heavy traffic.

Safe because motorcycles don’t require a full lane.

Acceptable if you have had your license for more than three years.

Because motorcycles, like cars, need a full lane width for safe operation, lane sharing is usually prohibited. Choose a lane position that discourages other road users from trying to share your lane.

21. A rectangular sign may be a:

School crossing sign.

Railroad crossing sign.

Stop sign.

Speed limit sign.

Signs informing road users of road regulations, such as speed limits, are normally rectangular and colored white with black lettering or symbols. Riders must follow the rules posted on these regulatory signs.

22. Most motorcycle crashes happen:

At high speeds.

After riding for a long time.

Far from home.

On short trips.

Most motorcycle crashes happen on short trips that are less than five miles long at speeds slower than 30 miles per hour.

Release and re-apply the rear brake.

Keep it locked until you completely stop.

Release the rear brake and only use the front brake.

Release the rear brake and use both brakes to stop.

If you accidentally lock the rear brake on a good traction surface, you can keep it locked until you have completely stopped. You should still be able to steer your motorcycle with a locked rear wheel.

24. When being passed from behind, you should:

Stay in the center portion of the lane.

Stay in the right portion of the lane.

Move onto the shoulder.

Activate your turn signal.

When you are being passed from behind or by an oncoming vehicle, stay in the center portion of your lane. Riding any closer to the passing vehicle can put you in danger.

25. If you must stop quickly in a curve, you should:

Straighten up, square the handlebars, and stop.

Abruptly apply both brakes while leaning.

Apply only the rear brake.

Apply only the front brake.

If you must stop quickly while in a curve, you should first straighten and square the handlebars, then stop. If straightening your motorcycle is not possible, you should apply the brakes smoothly and gradually, reduce your lean angle, then increase the brake pressure as you slow down.
