1. If a traffic signal light turns solid yellow, you should:

Prepare to stop.

Accelerate.

Put the vehicle into reverse and back up.

Do whatever the car ahead of you does.

A steady yellow traffic light means that the signal will soon turn red and that operators should slow down and prepare to stop. If you are approaching a solid yellow light and can do so safely before entering the intersection, stop your motorcycle.

2. When riding through a curve, a group of motorcyclists should:

Ride in a staggered formation.

Ride in a single-file formation.

Ride in a side-by-side formation.

Use both lanes if possible.

While a staggered formation is generally recommended, riders in a group should move into a single-file formation when taking curves, taking turns, entering a highway, or leaving a highway.

3. When riding a motorcycle, you should:

Always avoid the left portion of a lane.

Always avoid the right portion of a lane.

Always avoid the center portion of a lane.

Use whichever portion of the lane is safest.

There is no single lane position that you always need to avoid. Adjust your position in response to changing conditions on the road.

4. If you must stop quickly in a curve, you should:

Straighten up, square the handlebars, and stop.

Abruptly apply both brakes while leaning.

Apply only the rear brake.

Apply only the front brake.

If you must stop quickly while in a curve, you should first straighten and square the handlebars, then stop. If straightening your motorcycle is not possible, you should apply the brakes smoothly and gradually, reduce your lean angle, then increase the brake pressure as you slow down.
