1. Making eye contact with other drivers:

Means that they see you.

Guarantees that they will yield to you.

Doesn’t mean that they see you.

Is not worth the effort it takes.

You should not rely on eye contact to guarantee that a driver will yield to you. It is not uncommon for a driver to look directly at a motorcyclist and still fail to actually notice them.

2. To lessen your chances of being involved in an accident, you should:

Try to blend into traffic and not be noticed by other drivers.

Not use turn signals unless you are traveling at night.

Use your turn signals when changing lanes and making turns.

Ride closely to the vehicle ahead of you.

To reduce the risk of being involved in a crash, ensure that you are visible to others on the road. Communicate your intentions through your turn signals, brake light, and lane position. Maintain an adequate space cushion, scan your path of travel 12 seconds ahead of your vehicle, and be prepared to act if any hazards arise.

3. When you are being passed, you should:

Ride in the center portion of the lane.

Ride in the left portion of the lane.

Ride in the right portion of the lane.

Weave among the three portions of the lane as the vehicle passes.

When being passed, it is generally a good idea to ride in the center portion of your lane. Being on the side nearest the passing vehicle increases your risk of a collision. Being on the side farthest from the passing vehicle may prompt the other driver to merge back into your lane before it is safe.

Follow me

Slow down

Speed up

Exit

Hand signals are an important part of communication when riding in groups. This hand signal means "follow me."

5. When being passed, do not move into the portion of the lane farthest from the passing vehicle because:

The passing vehicle may re-enter your lane too early.

You may prevent another vehicle from passing you.

The portion of the lane nearest the passing vehicle is better.

You are more likely to experience a wind blast from the passing vehicle on the far side of the lane.

When being passed, you should not ride on the side of your lane that is farthest from the passing vehicle. Doing so may tempt the driver to return to your lane before there is actually room for them to do so safely.

6. It is important to flash your brake light when:

You are tired while riding.

You will be slowing where other drivers won't expect it.

There is a stop sign ahead.

Your signals are not working.

Motorcycle brake lights are more difficult to see than the brake lights of larger vehicles, so flashing your brake light may help other drivers to notice it. You should flash you brake light before slowing down where other drivers may not expect you to slow down, such as in the middle of a block or when approaching an alley.
