6. 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.

7. If your motorcycle starts to wobble, you should:

Gradually brake.

Accelerate.

Grip the handlebars firmly and close the throttle gradually.

Downshift.

Do not try to accelerate out of a wobble because doing so will only make the motorcycle more unstable. Instead, grip the handlebars firmly, slow down by gradually closing the throttle, move your weight as far forward and downward as possible, and pull off the road as soon as you can. Avoid applying the brakes, as this may also worsen the wobble.

8. If operating a three-wheeled motorcycle or riding with a sidecar, do not ride too far to the right of your lane because:

Other drivers may not see you.

You will not be able to pass other vehicles as easily.

Other drivers may try to share your lane.

You may run off the road.

Because a sidecar sits on the right side of a motorcycle, riding too far to the right side of your lane risks the sidecar running off the road. Similarly, on a three-wheeled motorcycle, the rear right wheel may leave the road if you get too close to the right edge.

9. When riding in a group, inexperienced riders should position themselves:

Just behind the leader.

In the front of the group.

At the tail end of the group.

Beside the lead rider.

Inexperienced riders should ride just behind the leader. This ensures that they won't have to chase after the group, and it allows more experienced riders to keep an eye on them from behind.

10. When approaching a blind intersection, you should:

Ride in the portion of the lane that will bring you into other drivers' fields of vision at the earliest possible moment.

Always be in the left lane to be the farthest from oncoming traffic.

Slowly sneak up to the intersection.

Weave slightly in your lane so your headlight has a better chance of being spotted.

When approaching a blind intersection, move into the part of the lane that will bring you into an oncoming driver's field of vision at the earliest possible moment. For example, when approaching a blind corner to your right, you may be seen sooner if you are in the left portion of your lane and not in the center portion.
