13. The center portion of a lane:

Is always the best part of the lane for a motorcycle.

Often contains oil and grease, but is usually safe for riding.

Often contains oil and grease, and is never safe for riding.

Is the smoothest part of the lane.

Oily drippings from cars collect in a strip in the center of each lane. Unless the road is wet, this area still generally offers enough traction for motorcyclists to safely ride. You should still avoid riding on big buildups of oil and grease, often found at busy intersections or near toll booths.

14. When going through a curve, you should:

Always stay in the same portion of the lane throughout the entire curve.

Always stay in the left portion of the lane throughout the entire curve.

Always stay in the right portion of the lane throughout the entire curve.

Remember that the best path may not follow the curve of the road.

Road and traffic conditions can change at any time. Always be prepared to change your lane position as appropriate no matter where you are on a roadway. The best path through a curve does not necessarily follow the curve of the road.

15. Your lane position should do all of the following, except:

Increase your ability to see and be seen.

Avoid other drivers' blind spots.

Avoid surface hazards.

Prevent access to an escape route.

A properly chosen lane position should provide a number of benefits, including an increased ability to see others and to be seen. It should help you avoid wind blasts, other drivers' blind spots, and surface hazards. Your lane position should discourage other drivers from trying to share your lane and provide you with an escape route, should a hazard arise.

16. If you must brake and swerve to avoid a hazard, you should:

Do one, then the other.

Do both at the same time.

Always apply the brakes first, then swerve.

Try instead to use only the brakes.

If you must brake and swerve to avoid a hazard, you should perform both actions separately. Brake then swerve, or swerve then brake. Do not do both at the same time.

17. When preparing to pass a vehicle on the left, it is important to ride on the left side of your lane because:

The right side could be slippery.

It will give you the best chance of spotting hazards in the next lane.

People don’t usually expect to be passed on their left.

It will place you in the rearview mirror of the car in front of you.

When preparing to pass on the left, you should ride in the left portion of your lane. This lane position will increase your line of sight and make your more visible to oncoming traffic.

18. If braking in a curve:

Only use the front brake.

It will be the same as braking on a straightaway.

You will have more traction as you lean into the curve.

You may have less traction as you lean into the curve.

It is possible to use both brakes while turning, but it must be done with great care. Some of the tires' usual traction is being used to make the turn while the motorcycle is leaning, so less traction is available for stopping.
