1. When deciding on a lane position, you should:

Always ride in the center portion of the lane.

Always ride in the left portion of the lane.

Always ride in the right portion of the lane.

Be flexible and base your decision off of numerous factors.

In general, there is no single best lane position. No portion of the lane need be avoided at all times. Position yourself in the portion of the lane where you are most likely to be seen and you can maintain a cushion of space around you.

2. When being passed from behind, you should:

Stay in the center portion of the lane.

Stay in the right portion of the lane.

Move onto the shoulder.

Activate your turn signal.

When you are being passed from behind or by an oncoming vehicle, stay in the center portion of your lane. Riding any closer to the passing vehicle can put you in danger.

3. When looking for a protective jacket or pair of pants, you should look for:

Items made of leather.

Items made of polyester.

Items made of light materials.

Items that are darkly-colored.

It is safest to wear long pants and a jacket to fully cover your arms and legs while riding. Clothing made of leather can provide the highest level of protection.

4. A child passenger:

Should be placed in front of the operator.

Should be placed behind the operator.

Does not have to be able to reach the footrests.

Should hold onto the motorcycle frame.

A child passenger on a motorcycle should always ride immediately behind the operator. A child sitting in front may be unable to balance properly and could interfere with the operator's use of the controls.

5. When riding in a group, it is best to put inexperienced riders near the front because:

Experienced riders can more easily keep an eye on them.

They will get lost if they are leading.

They may slow the group down as the leaders.

They will ride too fast in any other position.

In a group, less experienced riders should ride toward the front, just behind the leader, so more experienced riders can easily watch them.

6. To control your motorcycle well, you should:

Sit with your arms propping you up rather than steering.

Keep your knees against the gas tank for balance.

Allow your feet to hang off the footrests.

Sit so far back that you must stretch to reach the handgrips.

When riding, keep your knees against the gas tank to help maintain your balance in turns. Sit so that you can use your arms to steer rather than to prop yourself up. Sit far enough forward that your arms are slightly bent when you hold the handgrips, and keep your feet firmly on the footrests.
