8. Motorists entering a highway from an entrance ramp to your right may not see your motorcycle. To help the entering drivers, you should:

Sound your horn.

Flash your lights.

Move to the left portion of your lane so they can share the lane, if necessary.

Move into another lane, if necessary.

Give plenty of room to vehicles merging onto a highway from an entrance ramp. Merge into a lane farther away from the entrance ramp, if necessary. If it is not possible to change lanes, adjust your speed to allow room for the vehicle to safely enter the highway.

9. Your lane position should:

Keep your intentions hidden from other drivers.

Encourage other drivers to share your lane.

Increase your ability to see and be seen.

Be close to the road signs.

A properly chosen lane position should provide a number of benefits, including an increased ability to see others and to be seen.

Your lane position should discourage other drivers from trying to share your lane and provide you with an escape route, should a hazard arise.

Plans to turn left.

Is about to stop.

Plans to turn right.

Is about to slow down.

Instead of mechanical turn signals, operators may use hand signals to indicate turns or stops. If an operator's left arm is extended straight out to the left, it means the operator plans to turn left or change lanes to the left.

11. When you park a motorcycle next to a curb, it should be:

Parked at a 90-degree angle with the rear wheel touching the curb.

Parked at a 45-degree angle with the front tire touching the curb.

Parked like a car, with the front and rear wheels the same distance from the curb.

Parked at the left edge of the parking space so approaching drivers can more easily see the motorcycle.

Increase your speed before entering the turn.

Keep the motorcycle from leaning.

Look through the turn to anticipate the best course of action.

Come to a complete stop before entering the turn.

Should only be done on long trips.

Should be part of your normal scanning routine.

Are not helpful since you can’t do anything about what is behind you.
