Help you avoid other drivers’ blind spots.

A well-chosen lane position should increase your ability to see and be seen and keep you out of other drivers' blind spots. It should help you avoid surface hazards, protect your lane from other drivers, communicate your intentions to others, help you avoid wind blasts from other vehicles, and offer you an escape route from any hazards that may arise.

Weigh less than 75 pounds.

Have a seat that is less than 15 inches off the ground.

Produce no more than five brake horsepower.

Not have a seat.

In Connecticut, a motor-driven cycle (also known as a moped) is legally defined as any motorcycle, motor scooter, or bicycle with an attached motor that produces no more than five brake horsepower and seat that is at least 26 inches from the ground.

3. Which of the following is not important when looking for a motorcycle helmet?

The helmet meets U.S. Department of Transportation standards.

The helmet fits snugly all the way around your head.

The helmet has no obvious defects, such as cracks or loose padding.

The helmet looks cool.

To ensure that a helmet will provide you with as much protection as possible, check to see if it meets U.S. DOT and state standards; fits snugly all the way around your head; and has no obvious defects, such as cracks, loose padding, or frayed straps.

4. To control your motorcycle well, you should:

Sit with your arms propping you up rather than steering.

Keep your knees against the gas tank for balance.

Allow your feet to hang off the footrests.

Sit so far back that you must stretch to reach the handgrips.

When riding, keep your knees against the gas tank to help maintain your balance in turns. Sit so that you can use your arms to steer rather than to prop yourself up. Sit far enough forward that your arms are slightly bent when you hold the handgrips, and keep your feet firmly on the footrests.
