7. If someone is tailgating you, you should:

Ride faster to shake them.

Alert the local police.

Ride on the shoulder of the road.

Allow them to pass.

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

8. Maintain an adequate following distance behind other vehicles:

To allow you time and space to identify and react to hazards.

So you can tailgate.

To allow for traffic counters to accurately count you as a vehicle.

To encourage other drivers to cut you off.

Maintaining an adequate following distance ensures that you will have enough space to stop or swerve out of the way if the vehicle ahead of you stops suddenly. A space cushion also provides you with a better view of any hazards on the road surface, such as potholes.

9. When consumed together, the effects of alcohol and drugs:

Can be more pronounced than when either is consumed alone.

Are less dangerous than when either is consumed alone.

Are usually minimal.

Often balance out.

Many drugs, including prescription and over-the-counter medications, can impair your ability to ride safely. Some medications become even more dangerous when combined with alcohol.

10. Increase your following distance if:

The pavement is dry.

Riding conditions are normal.

The roadway is wet.

You can see through the vehicle in front of you.

Open up your following distance if your motorcycle will require a longer distance than normal to stop. Additionally, if you are riding in heavy traffic or if you cannot see through the vehicle in front of you, you should also increase your following distance.

11. Riding gloves are often:

Made of leather.

Made of wool.

Not pre-curved.

Unsafe for the rider.

Gloves designed for motorcycle riding are usually made of leather. In addition to improving your grip, gloves provide protection for a rider's hands and fingers.

12. Waiting for one hour to ride after having one drink:

Guarantees that you cannot be arrested for drinking and riding.

Guarantees that your riding skills will not be affected.

Should be fine as long as you ride slowly.

May not entirely remove the effects of alcohol from your body.

On average, a person's body can eliminate the alcohol content of about one drink per hour. The amount of time required to lower a person's blood alcohol content (BAC) can vary, so it is safest not to operate a motor vehicle after consuming any amount of alcohol.
