13. Which formation is best for a group of riders entering a curve?

Explanation
A staggered formation is generally the best way for a group to maintain close ranks while also allowing each rider to maintain an adequate cushion of space. A single-file formation is preferable when taking curves, turning, or entering or exiting a highway.

14. Slippery surfaces can make it difficult to control a motorcycle. Which of the following would be considered a slippery surface?

Explanation
Wet pavement; roads covered in loose gravel or sand; muddy, snowy, or icy areas; painted lane markings; and metal covers and plates in the road can be slippery surfaces. Motorcyclists should ride with extra caution when riding over slippery surfaces.

15. What should a motorcyclist do to prevent possible injury when riding on a slippery surface?

Explanation
When riding on a slippery surface, it is safest to decrease your speed. Making sudden moves on a slippery surface could cause your motorcycle to skid. Do not travel on the shoulder to escape a slippery road.

16. Helmeted riders are ________ more likely to survive than those not wearing helmets at the time of a crash.

Explanation
At any speed, wearing a helmet will make you three times more likely to survive head injuries in the event of a crash than you would if not wearing a helmet.

17. When passing parked cars, which part of the lane should you usually use?

Explanation
When passing a row of parked cars, it is often safest to ride in the left portion of your lane. Riding in the left portion will keep you farthest from any opening car doors, people stepping out from between cars, and cars pulling out of parking spaces.

18. In a slow, tight turn, the rider should:

Explanation
When taking normal turns, lean at the same angle as your motorcycle. However, in slow, tight turns, you should counterbalance the leaning motorcycle by keeping your body upright.
