43. If you are riding in traffic when a small animal enters your lane, you should:

Do whatever you can, including swerving into other lanes, to avoid hitting the animal.

Switch lanes as quickly as possible.

Stay in your lane.

Flash your lights to try to scare the animal.

Do everything you safely can to avoid hitting an animal in the road. If you are in traffic, however, you should remain in your lane. Swerving into another lane of traffic to avoid hitting an animal can cause you to collide with another driver. Hitting something small is less dangerous than hitting something big.

44. When riding in a group, inexperienced riders should ride:

In the front of the group.

Right behind the leader.

At the back of the group.

Wherever they are most comfortable.

When riding in a group, inexperienced riders should ride just behind the leader near the front of the group. This allows more experienced riders to keep an eye on them from the back of the group.

45. Which vest or jacket color would best help you to be seen?

Red

Black

Silver

Blue

Wearing brightly-colored clothing while riding will increase your chances of being seen. Bright oranges, yellows, reds, or greens are best and are preferable to drab or dark colors.

46. If operating a three-wheeled motorcycle or riding with a sidecar, do not ride too far to the right of your lane because:

Other drivers may not see you.

You will not be able to pass other vehicles as easily.

Other drivers may try to share your lane.

You may run off the road.

Because a sidecar sits on the right side of a motorcycle, riding too far to the right side of your lane risks the sidecar running off the road. Similarly, on a three-wheeled motorcycle, the rear right wheel may leave the road if you get too close to the right edge.

47. Your lane position should do all of the following, except:

Increase your ability to see and be seen.

Avoid other drivers' blind spots.

Avoid surface hazards.

Prevent access to 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.

48. The right clothing can protect you from all of the following, except:

Heat.

Debris.

Injury.

Other drivers.

Properly chosen clothing can help protect riders from injury in the event of a crash. Proper clothing can also protect riders from more routine hazards and discomforts, such as heat, cold, debris, and the hot and moving parts of a motorcycle.

49. When riding, you should:

Turn your head and shoulders to look through turns.

Keep your arms straight.

Keep your knees away from the gas tank.

Turn just your head and eyes to look through turns.

Always look through a turn to where you want to go. Turn only your head to look, not your shoulders, and keep your eyes level with the horizon.

Slow or stop

Left turn

Right turn

Backing up

Instead of or in addition to mechanical turn signals, operators may use hand signals to indicate turns or stops. If an operator's left arm is bent at the elbow and pointing downward, it means the operator plans to slow down or stop.
