1. A group of riders should merge onto a highway in:

A single-file formation.

A staggered formation.

Pairs.

A pyramid formation.

While a staggered formation is usually best under normal riding conditions, a group of riders should switch to a single-file formation when taking curves, turning, or entering or exiting a highway.

2. A passenger should never:

Wear a helmet.

Lean when the operator leans.

Wear clothing that is tight.

Ride sidesaddle.

In South Carolina, passengers under the age of 21 must wear a helmet and eye protection, though it is recommended that all motorcycle riders wear helmets and eye protection. Passengers should avoid wearing loose clothing that might catch on the motorcycle and should always lean with the operator when turning. Passengers should never be allowed to ride sidesaddle.

3. Which of the following types of clothing can help you to be seen by other drivers?

Darkly-colored clothes

Clothes made from synthetic materials

Reflective clothes

A leather jacket

Be sure to wear gear that can help you and your motorcycle to be spotted by other road users. Bright, reflective clothing can make it easier for others to see you.

4. Making eye contact with another driver:

Indicates that the driver sees you.

Doesn’t mean that the driver will properly yield to you.

Guarantees that the other driver will properly yield to you.

May make the driver mad.

Never rely on eye contact as an assurance that a driver will properly yield to you. It is common for drivers to look directly at motorcyclists and still fail to notice them.

5. When you are being passed, you should:

Ride in the center portion of the lane.

Ride in the left portion of the lane.

Ride in the right portion of the lane.

Weave among the three portions of the lane as the vehicle passes.

When being passed, it is generally a good idea to ride in the center portion of your lane. Being on the side nearest the passing vehicle increases your risk of a collision. Being on the side farthest from the passing vehicle may prompt the other driver to merge back into your lane before it is safe.

6. Studies show that most crash-involved riders:

Under-brake the front tire and over-break the rear tire.

Over-break the front tire and under-brake the rear tire.

Only use the front brake.

Only use the rear brake.

Most riders involved in crashes under-brake the front tire and over-brake the rear.
