1. In the context of group riding, what does the hand signal pictured mean?

Speed up.

Danger ahead.

Stop.

Merge.

Hand signals are an important part of communication when riding in groups. If a lead rider extends their left arm straight down with their palm facing back, the group of riders should come to a stop.

2. When being passed, do not move into the portion of the lane farthest from the passing vehicle because:

The passing vehicle may re-enter your lane too early.

You may prevent another vehicle from passing you.

The portion of the lane nearest the passing vehicle is better.

You are more likely to experience a wind blast from the passing vehicle on the far side of the lane.

When being passed, you should not ride on the side of your lane that is farthest from the passing vehicle. Doing so may tempt the driver to return to your lane before there is actually room for them to do so safely.

3. If you must swerve, you should:

Shift your weight quickly.

Turn your handlebars quickly.

Press the handgrip in the direction of the turn.

Press the handgrip in the opposite direction of the turn.

If you must swerve to avoid a hazard, apply a small amount of pressure to the appropriate handle grip. To swerve to the left, press the left handle grip, then press the right to recover. To swerve to the right, press the right handle grip, then the left.

4. On a slippery surface, you should not:

Reduce your speed.

Avoid making sudden moves.

Use only the front brake when slowing or stopping.

Use both brakes when slowing or stopping.

To ride safely on a slippery surface, you should use both brakes when slowing or stopping, reduce your speed, and avoid making sudden moves. Be alert to oily areas, dirt, gravel, shaded areas, and bridges, as these surfaces are more likely to be slippery than others.
