1. When riding at night, how should your following distance compare to your following distance during the day?

You should allow a longer following distance when following another vehicle at night.

You should allow a shorter following distance when following another vehicle at night.

You should always maintain the same following distance regardless of the time of day.

Following distance really doesn’t matter.

Distances are difficult to judge in the dark because visual cues (like shadows and light contrasts) can be missing or distorted. You should allow a longer following distance when riding at night than you do when riding during the day.

2. A thorough check of your motorcycle:

Is useless unless done by a mechanic.

Should not be done before a ride.

Should be done only after a ride.

Can help you identify any mechanical defects or equipment failures.

It is recommended that you thoroughly check your motorcycle before every ride. Doing this can help you identify mechanical defects or equipment failures that could endanger you.

3. Making eye contact with other drivers:

Is the best way to know that they see you.

Is not worth the effort it takes.

Does not mean that they will yield to you when they should.

Guarantees that they will yield to you.

You should never take eye contact as a guarantee that a driver will properly yield to you. It is not uncommon for drivers to look directly at a motorcyclist but fail to register that they are there.

4. Passengers should:

Lean with the operator.

Never come into contact with the operator.

Sit as far back on their seat as possible.

Hold onto their seat.

Before riding while carrying a passenger, you should instruct your passenger to lean with you through turns and curves. They should hold onto your waist, hips, or belt.

5. Before changing lanes, you should:

Turn your head to check for vehicles in your blind spot.

Rely on your mirrors to show you all of your surroundings.

Point in the direction of the lane change.

Speed up to get ahead of other vehicles.

Motorcycles have blind spots, just like any other vehicle. You should always turn your head to check for traffic in your blind spot before changing lanes. Do not rely on your mirrors alone.
