15. If riding during the day, you should wear:

Clothing with reflective material.

A short-sleeved shirt.

Darkly-colored clothing.

Most motorcycle crashes happen in broad daylight. To maximize your chances of being seen, you should wear clothing with reflective material when riding, even during the day. Always wear clothing that covers your arms and legs.

16. You should flash your brake light to:

Tell other motorists that you are riding near them.

Help other motorists see your motorcycle while traveling in slow traffic.

Tell other motorists that you are going to slow down or stop where they don't expect you to do so.

Motorcycle riders should use their brake lights to communicate with other road users. It is particularly important for a motorcyclist to flash their brake light before slowing down to make a tight, fast turn off of a high-speed roadway. Motorcyclists should flash their brake lights when slowing in any location where other drivers may not expect them to slow down.

17. If you need to react to a hazard in the road, do not:

Avoid communicating with other drivers.

Adjust your speed accordingly.

Make your presence known by sounding your horn and/or using lights or signals.

To create more space and minimize the harm of any hazard, communicate your presence to other road users by using your horn, lights, and/or signals. Adjust your speed to be appropriate for the situation and adjust your lane position and/or direction of travel as needed.

18. Unlike other substances, alcohol:

Is very quickly absorbed into the bloodstream.

Needs to be digested to enter the bloodstream.

Can improve your riding ability.

Unlike other substances, alcohol does not need to be digested before entering the bloodstream. It is absorbed directly through the walls of the stomach and small intestine, quickly reaching and affecting the brain.

19. When approaching a blind intersection, riders should:

Stop at the stop line before moving forward to improve their view of cross traffic.

Ignore the stop line and move forward to get a better look.

Stop at the stop line then proceed through the intersection.

When approaching a blind intersection that is controlled by a stop line or stop sign, you must first stop where indicated. You may then edge forward and stop again just short of where the cross traffic lane meets your lane. From that position, lean your body forward and look around buildings, parked cars, or bushes to see if anything is approaching. Make sure your front wheel stays out of the crossroad while you are looking.

20. The formation you should take when riding in a group:

Is always single-file.

Depends on the situation.

Is always staggered.

In general, it is best for a group to ride in a staggered formation. Move into a single-file formation when taking a curve, making a turn, entering a highway, or leaving a highway.

21. To control a motorcycle well, you should:

Use your arms to hold yourself up.

Keep your knees against the gas tank.

Sit so your arms are straight when reaching for the handlebars.

When riding, you should be seated so you can use your arms to steer rather than to hold yourself up. Your elbows should be slightly bent when you hold the handgrips. Keep your knees against the gas tank to help maintain your balance.
