1. If your motorcycle begins to wobble, you should:

Keep riding, as the wobble will likely correct itself.

Quickly brake.

Close the throttle to slow down.

Accelerate quickly.

Trying to accelerate out of a wobble will only increase the problem. Instead, grip the handlebars firmly, slow down while gradually closing the throttle, move your weight as far forward and downward as you can, and pull off the road as soon as you can. Once off the road, you should address the problem causing the wobble.

2. When stopping behind a vehicle, you should:

Stop far behind the vehicle, then slowly creep up.

Stay well behind the vehicle.

Make a quick stop right behind the vehicle.

Stay about four car lengths behind the vehicle.

Stay well behind the vehicle in front of you, even if you are both stopped. The vehicle could back up unexpectedly, or you may need space to get out of the way of another vehicle bearing down on you from behind.

3. If you are feeling tired while riding, you should:

Keep going and hope to wake up.

Ride faster.

Ride on the shoulder.

Get off the road and rest.

You should avoid riding if you are tired. When making a long trip, take rest breaks at least every two hours to reduce the risk of becoming fatigued.

4. You should do a pre-ride inspection:

Before every ride.

About once every 10 rides.

Once a month.

Once a season.

A small technical fault can have much more serious consequences on a motorcycle than on a car. To avoid these consequences, inspect your motorcycle before every ride.

5. Riding directly alongside another vehicle is discouraged because:

You may have a difficult time getting to a highway exit.

You may be in the other vehicle’s blind spot.

You may block the driver's view.

It prevents other drivers from passing both of you.

Riding alongside another vehicle is dangerous because you could be riding in the vehicle's blind spot. The driver may enter your lane without warning if they can't see you. The vehicle will also block your route of escape if a hazard arises.

6. To increase your visibility, you should:

Turn off your headlight during the day.

Wear dark clothes.

Keep your headlight on at all times.

Ride in the right portion of the lane.

Strategies for making yourself more visible include wearing brightly-colored and reflective clothing, keeping your headlight on at all times, and varying your lane position as conditions demand.
