1. To help others see your motorcycle, you should:

Use your headlight.

Weave in your lane.

Maintain eye contact with other road users.

Riding with your headlight activated is the best way to help other road users see your motorcycle. Always be sure your headlight works before starting your trip.

2. How do convex mirrors differ from regular mirrors?

They provide a more narrow view of the road.

They provide a wider view of the road.

They provide a better view of the road.

Convex mirrors are installed on many motorcycles. Compared to flat mirrors, convex mirrors provide a wider view of the road. However, convex mirrors can also make approaching vehicles seem farther away than they actually are.

3. When riding, you should wear boots or shoes that:

Cover your ankles.

Have long heels.

Have long and loose laces.

Footwear for riding should be high and sturdy enough to cover and support your ankles. Heels should be low enough that they won't catch on rough surfaces. Shoelaces should be tucked in to keep them from catching on the motorcycle.

4. If possible, do not ride directly next to another vehicle because:

Another driver may want to use your lane to pass.

You may be in the vehicle’s blind spot.

You may have access to escape routes.

Riding directly alongside another vehicle is dangerous because you may be in the vehicle's blind spot and the driver will not know you are there. Additionally, the vehicle may block your route of escape if any hazards should arise.

5. If another driver makes eye contact with you:

You know that they have seen you.

It doesn’t always mean they've actually seen you.

They will properly yield to you.

You should never rely on eye contact as an assurance that a driver has seen you. It is not uncommon for a driver to look directly at a motorcyclist and still fail to actually notice them.

6. Before riding, a motorcycle operator should check the clutch. A properly working clutch should feel:

Loose and rough.

Tight and smooth.

Loose and smooth.

Check your clutch and throttle before riding your motorcycle. The throttle should snap back when you let go and the clutch should feel tight and smooth.

7. When riding with a passenger on your motorcycle, you should instruct the passenger to:

Get on the motorcycle before the engine starts.

Sit as far back as possible on the bike.

Not talk or move unnecessarily.

Tell passengers to avoid unnecessary conversation or movement while on a moving motorcycle. Passengers should get onto a motorcycle only after the engine is started. They should sit as far forward as possible without crowding the operator.
