13. When riding with a passenger, you should:

Maintain your usual space cushion.

Brake later than usual.

Ride a little more slowly than usual.

Ride a little faster than usual.

Your motorcycle will sit lower than normal under the additional weight of a passenger. To accommodate, you should ride a bit more slowly than usual, particularly when riding through curves, through corners, or over bumps. The extra weight also means that your motorcycle will take longer than usual to speed up, slow down, or stop, so you should maintain a larger space cushion when carrying a passenger.

14. 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.

15. When being passed from behind, you should:

Stay in the center portion of the lane.

Stay in the right portion of the lane.

Move onto the shoulder.

Activate your turn signal.

When you are being passed from behind or by an oncoming vehicle, stay in the center portion of your lane. Riding any closer to the passing vehicle can put you in danger.

16. Most crashes occur during the day. To lessen the chance of being involved in a crash, you should:

Wear darkly-colored clothing.

Wear brightly-colored clothing.

Not ride during the day.

Look for safer routes.

To minimize your chances of being in a crash, you should make yourself as visible as possible by wearing brightly-colored clothing when riding, even during the day.

17. When using a motorcycle with which you are unfamiliar, you should:

Test the seat to make sure it is comfortable.

Assume the motorcycle is in good riding condition.

Work the throttle, clutch, and brakes a few times before riding.

Ride as you usually do, since most bikes are similar.

Since all motorcycles are somewhat different, you should be very careful when using one that is new to you. Familiarize yourself with the motorcycle before setting off. Learn the gear pattern before riding by working the throttle, clutch, and brakes a few times.

18. If you are transporting a passenger, they should:

Lean as you lean.

Hold onto the motorcycle seat.

Sit as far back as possible.

Never hold onto you.

A passenger should lean with the operator through turns and curves. They should sit as far forward as possible, without hindering the operator's control of the motorcycle, and hold onto passenger handholds or the operator's waist, hips, or belt.
