Perform one action, then the other.

Perform both actions at the same time and apply extra braking pressure.

Perform both actions at the same time, but mainly focus on swerving.

Not perform either action.

Because you need adequate traction to swerve safely, you should not brake and swerve at the same time. Instead, if you approach a hazard that requires you to brake and swerve, you should perform one action and then the other.

The group is easy to see.

The group is unlikely to be split up.

The riders will get to their destination more quickly in a close group than a group that is spread out.

18. When a vehicle attempts to pass you from behind, you should:

Move to the center portion of the lane.

Move to the left portion of the lane.

Move to the right portion of the lane.

Not be concerned about which portion of the lane you are using.

When being passed, it is generally best to ride in the center portion of your lane. Being too close to the passing vehicle increases the risk of a collision.
