1. If vehicles are present on both sides of you motorcycle, which lane position is usually the best option?

Left

Right

Center

There is no lane position that is always best and no lane position that should always be avoided. A responsible rider will adjust their position as road and traffic conditions warrant. If vehicles are on both the left and right sides of a rider, the center lane position is probably the safest option.

2. Convex mirrors:

Provide a narrow view of the road behind you.

Provide a wide view of the road behind you.

Are illegal.

In comparison to flat mirrors, convex mirrors provide a wider view of the road behind you. They also make objects seem farther away than they actually are. Take the time to get used to your mirrors if your motorcycle is equipped with convex mirrors.

3. If you are riding behind another vehicle at night, you can determine if there are bumps on the road ahead by:

Listening for the other vehicle scraping against the pavement.

Noticing the other vehicle’s taillights bouncing up and down.

Looking at the rear bumper of the vehicle ahead and trying to determine if it is bouncing.

To determine upcoming road conditions when riding at night, use the vehicle ahead of you. For example, the headlights of the vehicle may provide a better view of the road than your own high beam. If the vehicle's taillights bounce up and down, this indicates the presence of bumps on the road.

4. If a motorcycle is towing a trailer, the motorcyclist's following distance should:

Increase.

Decrease.

Be the same as it normally would be.

A motorcyclist who is towing a trailer should increase their following distance. The added weight of the trailer means that the motorcycle will require more time to stop than it would otherwise.

5. When it starts raining, it is best to:

Get off the road.

Ride in the tire tracks left by other vehicles.

Ride in the center portion of the lane.

When it starts to rain, avoid riding in the center of the lane. Instead, ride in the tire tracks left by cars ahead of you. The left tire track is often best for riding, but this can vary based on traffic and other conditions.
