8. Passengers should:

Look over their shoulder when taking a turn or curve.

Never hold onto the rider.

Sit as far back as possible.

Before mounting, you should ask your passenger to look over your shoulder in the direction of any turn or curve that you may take. Doing so will help you and your bike to lean in the appropriate direction.

9. A DOT-compliant helmet:

Severely limits your vision.

Allows you to see as far to the sides as is necessary for safe riding.

Can become a hazard to the rider.

While some people believe that a helmet will limit their vision, this is not the case. Any U.S. Department of Transportation-approved helmet will allow the wearer to see as far as is needed for safe riding.

10. Which lane position is usually best for minimizing the risk of other vehicles sharing your lane?

The left portion of the lane

The center portion of the lane

The right portion of the lane

Riding in the center portion of your lane can discourage other drivers from trying to squeeze into your lane to drive next to you. Additionally, riding in the center portion of your lane when traveling behind a car generally ensures that you will appear in the middle of the vehicle's rearview mirror, where the driver is most likely to notice you.

11. To lessen the chances of a crash occurring, you should:

Not use turn signals.

Use proper lane positions.

Follow other vehicles closely.

To lessen the chances of a crash occurring, you should make yourself visible, communicate your intentions to others, maintain adequate space cushions, search your path of travel at least 12 seconds ahead, identify and separate hazards, and be prepared to react to changing conditions.

12. As you approach a blind intersection, you should:

Move into the part of the lane that allows other drivers to most easily see you.

Move into the part of the lane closest to the traffic control device.

Move into the outside edge of the lane.

When approaching a blind intersection, move into the portion of the lane that will bring you into any other driver's field of vision at the earliest possible moment.

13. When riding a motorcycle, it is important to:

Focus only on what is in front of you.

Focus only on what is behind you.

Know what’s happening both in front of and behind you.

While it is most important to be aware of what is ahead of you on the road, you cannot ignore what is behind you. You can keep track of the situation behind you by checking your mirrors consistently.

14. The key to making a quick turn is to:

Shift your weight quickly.

Turn the handlebars quickly.

Get your motorcycle to lean quickly.

The key to making an evasive maneuver is to get your motorcycle to quickly lean in the direction you wish to turn. The sharper the turn, the more it must lean.
