13. It is most important to flash your brake light when:

Passing another vehicle.

You will be slowing down suddenly.

There is a stop sign ahead.

Your signals do not work.

A motorcycle's single brake light is not as noticeable as the two larger brake lights of a car or truck. It can be a good idea to flash your brake light to help others notice it, especially when you need to slow down more quickly than surrounding drivers may expect.

14. When you have mounted your motorcycle, you should do all of the following, except:

Make sure the mirrors are clean.

Make sure the horn works.

Close the fuel supply valve.

Make sure the clutch works smoothly.

After mounting your motorcycle, you should make sure the clutch, throttle, horn, and brakes all work properly. Clean and adjust the mirrors and make sure that the fuel supply valve is open.

15. Convex mirrors make cars seem:

Larger.

Farther away.

Faster.

Narrower.

Rounded, or convex, mirrors provide a wider view of the road than flat mirrors, but they also make objects seem farther away than they actually are.

16. A properly-fitted motorcycle:

Allows the rider to touch the ground with their feet while seated.

Has a seat even with the rider's waist.

Has a seat that is 10 inches above the rider's waist.

Has a seat that is 10 inches below the rider's waist.

If your motorcycle fits you properly, your feet should be able to reach the ground while you are seated. When riding your motorcycle, keep your feet firmly on the footrests.

17. When being passed, all of the following are potential hazards, except:

Extended mirrors.

Objects being thrown from other vehicles.

Blasts of wind.

Headlights.

When being passed, motorcyclists should be careful not to be hit by any part of the passing vehicle, including its mirrors. In addition to the vehicle itself, motorcyclists should be aware of wind gusts coming from the passing vehicle and potential objects being thrown by a passenger in the vehicle who may not be paying attention to the road.

18. To increase your chances of being seen at an intersection, you should:

Turn your headlight off.

Ride with your headlight on.

Try to make eye contact with other drivers.

Ride as closely as possible to the vehicle ahead.

The single most important thing you can do to help others see you at an intersection is to ride with your headlight on. Your headlight should be on whenever your motorcycle is running.
