Assume other drivers see you, especially if they make eye contact.

Never assume other drivers see you.

Stay focused on moving through the intersection.

Occur at speeds greater than 35 mph.

Are caused by worn tires.

Happen in the dark.

40. A motorcyclist's cushion of space:

Should always stay the same.

Should vary according to riding conditions.

Is not necessary in most situations.

Should be avoided to keep traffic moving safely.

An expanded cushion of space is needed if your motorcycle will take longer than normal to stop. If the pavement is slippery, if you cannot see through the vehicle ahead of you, or if traffic is heavy and another driver may try to squeeze in front of you, open up your following distance.

41. A skidding rear tire:

Is not serious.

Eliminates your ability to change direction.

Will usually correct itself.

Is only a concern if the front tire is also skidding.
