16. When securing a load, you should place the load:

As high as possible.

As low as possible.

On a sissy bar.

Only on one side of the motorcycle.

Secured loads should be low. Putting them too high up, such as on a sissy bar, can raise the motorcycle's center of gravity and upset its balance. Loads should be as evenly distributed as possible on each side of the motorcycle to avoid pulling the bike to one side.

17. When changing lanes, riders should:

Rely only on their mirrors to identify other vehicles.

Turn their head to look for traffic behind them.

Not worry about other traffic.

Slam on the brakes to allow any vehicles in their blind spot to pass.

A motorcycle has blind spots just like any other vehicle. A rider must always turn their head to check for traffic before changing lanes.

18. A motorcyclist can discourage other vehicles from lane sharing by:

Riding in the left portion of a lane.

Riding in the center portion of a lane.

Giving dirty looks if another driver moves into their lane.

Riding in a zigzag pattern to fill up a lane.

Any time a driver may be tempted to try to squeeze into your lane next to you, ride in the center portion of the lane to discourage them from doing so.

19. Where is the horn button usually located?

By the left handgrip

By the right handgrip

By the left footrest

By the right footrest

Make sure that you are aware of the locations of all your motorcycle's controls before beginning to ride. The horn button on a motorcycle is usually located next to the left handgrip.

20. When riding downhill or shifting into first gear, you may need to:

Use your brakes to slow down before downshifting safely.

Speed up before downshifting safely.

Swerve to the left.

Flash your brakes to ensure that drivers behind you know you are downshifting.

Before shifting into a lower gear, make sure you are riding slowly enough to shift safely. Downshifting while going too fast may cause the motorcycle to lurch and the rear wheel to skid. When riding downhill or shifting into first gear, you may need to use the brakes to slow to a safe speed before downshifting.
