6. If traveling in a group:

The more riders, the better.

The group should be made up of at least nine riders.

The group should be broken into two or more smaller groups if it is made up of more than four or five riders.

Riders in a large group will be unlikely to be separated.

When riding in a group, it is generally best to travel in a small group. In comparison to a large group, a small group is easier and safer for other motorists to pass, less likely to become separated, and creates less need for riders to hurry to catch up to others in the group. A group should be split into smaller groups if it is made up of more than four or five riders.

7. When riding over rough surfaces, you should:

Hold the handgrips loosely to allow for movement.

Hold the handgrips firmly to maintain control.

Use lots of throttle to help you get over the rough surface.

Ride without a helmet as the helmet could become loose and cover your face.

When riding over a rough surface, hold onto the handgrips firmly to ensure that you will maintain directional control over your motorcycle.

8. To cross tracks that run parallel to your lane, you should:

Edge gradually across the tracks.

Cross the tracks at a 90-degree angle.

Wait for the tracks to end.

Move away from the tracks, turn, and cross at an angle of at least 45 degrees.

To safely cross trolley tracks, railroad tracks, ruts, or pavement seams running parallel to your lane, move to a lane position that will allow you to cross them at an angle of at least 45 degrees. Then, make a quick, sharp turn. If you try to edge across, the tracks or seam could catch your tires and throw you off balance.

9. Reflective clothing should:

Be worn only at night.

Be worn only during the day.

Not be worn.

Be worn day and night.

Brightly-colored and/or reflective clothing will increase your chances of being seen under any conditions. Remember that most motorcycle crashes happen in broad daylight so it is still best to wear bright clothing during the day.

10. If you are riding and your motorcycle starts to handle differently, you should:

Continue riding normally.

Pull over and check the tires.

Pull over to check the chain.

Pull over to check the windshield.

A sudden change in handling may indicate that a tire on your motorcycle has failed. If you feel a change in the way your motorcycle handles, pull over safely and check your tires.
