1. When an operator's left arm is extended straight out to the left, it means the operator:

Plans to turn left.

Is about to stop.

Plans to turn right.

Is about to slow down.

Instead of mechanical turn signals, operators may use hand signals to indicate turns or stops. If an operator's left arm is extended straight out to the left, it means the operator plans to turn left or change lanes to the left.

2. Before mounting a motorcycle, you should check all of the following, except:

The air pressure in the tires.

Fluid levels.

The turn signals.

Damage to the paint.

Before getting on a motorcycle, you should check the tread and air pressure of the tires, the oil and fluid levels, the lights, and the signals.

3. Brightly-colored helmets:

May make it easier for the wearer to be seen.

Can be distracting.

Don’t help to improve a rider's visibility.

Are not permitted.

Choosing a brightly-colored helmet is recommended. Not only will the helmet protect you in the case of a crash, but the bright color of the helmet will help other road users see you.

4. A simple way to make your motorcycle easier to see is to:

Ride with a large flag attached to its frame.

Ride with the headlight turned on.

Wave at other drivers.

Ride on the shoulder whenever possible.

You can make yourself easier to see by wearing brightly-colored, reflective clothing. Ride with your headlight on at all times and use your turn signals and brake light appropriately.
