19. When it is likely that other drivers may attempt to squeeze into your lane, you should:

Allow lane sharing.

Ride in the center portion of the lane.

Ride in the right portion of the lane.

Ride on the shoulder.

Riding in the center portion of your lane when traveling in heavy traffic can discourage other drivers from trying to squeeze into your lane next to you. Lane sharing is unsafe and is prohibited by law in Maryland.

20. To lessen your chances of being involved in a crash, you should:

Not use your turn signals when changing lanes.

Follow other vehicles closely.

Watch about five feet ahead of your motorcycle while riding.

Always be ready to use crash-avoidance techniques.

To reduce the risk of a crash, you should always ensure that you are visible to others. Communicate your intentions through proper use of your signals, brake light, and lane position. Maintain a space cushion around your motorcycle and consistently scan the road ahead of, behind, and next to your vehicle. Always be ready to avoid an unexpected hazard.

21. When riding in a group while passing another vehicle, it is best to:

Allow one rider to fully pass the other vehicle before another rider begins to pass.

Allow several members of the group to pass the other vehicle at once.

Have the last rider in the group wave to the driver being passed to signal that no other motorcycles are approaching.

Pass in a staggered formation.

Riders in a group should overtake another vehicle one at a time. Each rider should complete their pass and resume their position in the group formation before the next rider begins to pass.

22. When riding in a group, inexperienced riders should position themselves:

Just behind the leader.

In front of the group.

At the rear of the group.

Beside the leader.

In a group of motorcyclists, riders with less experience should be positioned toward the front of the group, just behind the leader. This will allow more experienced riders behind them to keep an eye on them.

23. When riding at night:

Distances are easier to judge than they are during the day.

Using a high beam headlight always makes it difficult to see.

Use only one lane position.

Reduce your speed.

When riding at night, you should reduce your speed and increase your following distance. Use your high beam headlight whenever you are riding where there is no other traffic. Always be prepared to adjust your lane position to react to changing conditions.

24. Maximum straight-line braking is done by:

Using only the rear brake.

Using only the front brake.

Using both the front and rear brakes without locking either wheel.

Using both the front and rear brakes while locking the rear wheel.

On a straightaway, you can stop in the shortest distance by using both brakes. Try to avoid locking either brake.

25. Approved helmets:

Can limit the view of the motorcycle operator.

Allow the motorcycle operator to see as far to the sides as necessary.

Are dangerous to wear.

Do not have to be worn if the motorcycle operator thinks their view would be limited.

While some people worry that wearing a helmet may dangerously limit their field of vision, this is not the case. Any approved helmet will let the operator see as far to the sides as is needed for safe riding.
