7. When preparing to pass another vehicle, you should ride in the left portion of your lane because:

It increases your line of sight.

It decreases your line of sight.

It makes it difficult to see beyond the vehicle.

It allows the other driver to speed up.

When preparing to pass on the left, you should ride in the left portion of your lane, both to increase your line of sight and to make yourself more visible to drivers already in the passing lane.

8. A passenger should never:

Wear a helmet.

Lean when the operator leans.

Wear clothing that is tight.

Ride sidesaddle.

In South Carolina, passengers under the age of 21 must wear a helmet and eye protection, though it is recommended that all motorcycle riders wear helmets and eye protection. Passengers should avoid wearing loose clothing that might catch on the motorcycle and should always lean with the operator when turning. Passengers should never be allowed to ride sidesaddle.

9. 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.

10. Your lane position should not:

Increase your ability to see.

Avoid placing you in other drivers' blind spots.

Encourage other drivers to share your lane.

Provide you with an escape route.

A properly chosen lane position should provide a number of benefits, including an increased ability to see others and to be seen. It should help you avoid wind blasts, other drivers' blind spots, and surface hazards. Your lane position should discourage other drivers from trying to share your lane and provide you with an escape route, should a hazard arise.

Easier than riding during the day because you can more easily see the lights of other vehicles.

More difficult than riding during the day because it is harder to see.

Not allowed on highways.

Less distracting than riding during the day.

Riding safely at night is challenging because it is harder to see and be seen than it is during the day. The absence of normal shadows and light contrasts makes it harder to judge distances.
