16. A plastic, shatter-resistant face shield:

Is not necessary if you have a windshield.

Only protects your eyes.

Protects more than just your eyes.

Does not protect your face as well as goggles.

A plastic, shatter-resistant face shield helps protect your entire face, including your eyes. Goggles can protect your eyes, but not the rest of your face. A windshield is not an adequate substitute for either.

17. Passengers should:

Lean with the operator.

Never come into contact with the operator.

Sit as far back on their seat as possible.

Hold onto their seat.

Before riding while carrying a passenger, you should instruct your passenger to lean with you through turns and curves. They should hold onto your waist, hips, or belt.

18. Your lane position should do all of the following, except:

Help you avoid road hazards.

Help you avoid other drivers’ blind spots.

Help you avoid being seen by other drivers.

Increase your ability to be seen by others.

A well-chosen lane position should increase your ability to see and be seen and keep you out of other drivers' blind spots. It should help you avoid surface hazards, protect your lane from other drivers, communicate your intentions to others, help you avoid wind blasts from other vehicles, and offer you an escape route from any hazards that may arise.

19. When being followed too closely by another vehicle, you should:

Speed up.

Move onto the shoulder.

Allow the other driver to pass you.

Exit the roadway.

The best way to deal with a tailgater is to get them ahead of you. If you can do so safely, change lanes and let them pass. Speeding up may only increase the danger by encouraging them to continue tailgating you at a higher speed.

20. When approaching a blind intersection, you should:

Ride in the portion of the lane that will bring you into other drivers' fields of vision at the earliest possible moment.

Always be in the left lane to be the farthest from oncoming traffic.

Slowly sneak up to the intersection.

Weave slightly in your lane so your headlight has a better chance of being spotted.

When approaching a blind intersection, move into the part of the lane that will bring you into an oncoming driver's field of vision at the earliest possible moment. For example, when approaching a blind corner to your right, you may be seen sooner if you are in the left portion of your lane and not in the center portion.
