1. What does this hand signal mean?

Slow or stop

Left turn

Right turn

Backing up

Instead of or in addition to mechanical turn signals, operators may use hand signals to indicate turns or stops. If an operator's left arm is bent at the elbow and pointing downward, it means the operator plans to slow down or stop.

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. You should use a larger cushion of space:

When roads are slippery.

When it is sunny outside.

When it is colder than usual.

When you are following other motorcycles.

A two-second following distance is generally appropriate. Allow a larger cushion of space when riding under conditions that will increase your stopping distance, such as when the road surface is icy or wet.

4. Smoothly downshifting on motorcycles:

Is a useless action.

Can allow the rider to engine brake.

Is illegal.

Should not be done if other vehicles are around.

Engine braking by smoothly downshifting can be a useful option for motorcyclists. If you choose to engine brake, apply your brake lights separately to let other drivers know that you are slowing down.

5. As a motorcycle operator, you can help others see you by:

Riding with your headlight off.

Wearing bright clothing.

Following other vehicles closely.

Not using turn signals.

To increase your chances of being seen, wear brightly-colored clothing, use your headlight at all times, and use your turn signals.

6. You should check your tires for all of the following, except:

Air pressure.

Tread.

General wear.

Flexibility.

When doing a pre-ride inspection of your motorcycle, you should check the air pressure, general wear, and tread of your tires.
