22. To lessen your chances of being involved in a crash, you should do all of the following, except:

Scan your path ahead.

Be ready to act to avoid a hazard.

Turn your headlight off during the day.

To reduce the risk of a crash, you should always ensure that you are visible to others. Communicate your intentions through proper use of your signals, brake light, and lane position. Maintain a space cushion around your motorcycle and consistently scan the road ahead of, behind, and next to your vehicle.

23. Which lane position is usually best for minimizing the risk of other vehicles sharing your lane?

The left portion of the lane

The center portion of the lane

The right portion of the lane

Riding in the center portion of your lane can discourage other drivers from trying to squeeze into your lane to drive next to you. Additionally, riding in the center portion of your lane when traveling behind a car generally ensures that you will appear in the middle of the vehicle's rearview mirror, where the driver is most likely to notice you.

24. As you approach a blind intersection, you should:

Move into the part of the lane that allows other drivers to most easily see you.

Move into the part of the lane closest to the traffic control device.

Move into the outside edge of the lane.

When approaching a blind intersection, move into the portion of the lane that will bring you into any other driver's field of vision at the earliest possible moment.

25. When riding behind a car, traveling in the left third of the lane allows the driver to see you in their side mirror. What is a downside to this?

Most people don’t use their side mirrors as often as they use their rearview mirror.

The wind may prevent the use of a side mirror.

Side mirrors should not be used by motorists.

Most drivers do not look at their side mirrors as often as they look at their rearview mirror. Therefore, when following a car, it is generally most advantageous to ride in the center portion of the lane where you are most likely to be visible in the driver's rearview mirror.

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.
