Passing Score 20

1. When preparing to ride with a passenger, instruct the passenger to:

Get onto the motorcycle before you.

Sit as far back as possible.

Hold firmly onto your waist, hips, or belt.

Ask your passenger to wait to mount the motorcycle until after you have started the engine. They should sit as far forward as possible without crowding you and firmly hold onto your waist, hips, or belt.

2. Motorcycles may pass on the right:

If there is at least eight feet of unobstructed pavement.

By riding on the shoulder of the road.

By riding on the grass, if it is level.

Motorcyclists may pass on the right if there is unobstructed pavement with a width of at least eight feet to the right of the vehicle being passed. Motorcyclists, and other drivers, should never leave the road to pass another vehicle.

3. Unlike other beverages, alcohol:

Is absorbed into the bloodstream right away.

Needs to be digested.

Doesn’t affect humans.

Unlike other substances in food and drink, alcohol does not need to be digested. It is absorbed directly through the walls of the stomach and small intestine, enters the bloodstream, and quickly reaches the brain.

4. If your motorcycle starts to weave while riding over uneven metal bridge gratings, you should:

Downshift immediately to a lower gear.

Proceed in a zigzag pattern until you cross the bridge.

Relax and steer straight.

If your motorcycle begins to weave while riding over uneven rain grooves or bridge gratings, simply relax and proceed straight across the grooves at a steady speed. Steering in a zigzag pattern as you cross gratings is more dangerous than the weaving.

5. If you borrow a motorcycle, you should:

Assume all controls are in the same location as they are on your motorcycle.

Immediately take it out on the highway.

Get familiar with it in a controlled area.

All motorcycles are at least somewhat different. Before riding a motorcycle that is new to you, take the time to learn where all of the controls are. Ride the motorcycle in a controlled area to get used to it before taking it out on the road.

6. Blind spots on motorcycles:

Are nothing to worry about.

Should be consistently checked by riders.

Don't exist if the motorcycle has a rearview mirror.

Just like any other vehicle, motorcycles have blind spots. A rider should always turn their head to check for traffic in their blind spot before changing lanes. It is a good idea for a rider to make head checks a part of their normal routine.
