1. ______ is a guarantee that another driver sees you.

Eye contact

Using a turn signal

Following another vehicle

Nothing

Nothing guarantees that a driver sees you. It is safest to assume that if another vehicle can enter your path, it will.

2. How can a motorcycle operator discourage lane sharing by other drivers?

By giving dirty looks to other drivers

By riding in the center portion of the lane

By riding in the left portion of the lane

By riding in a zigzag pattern

By riding in the center portion of your lane, you will ensure that there is not a large space on either side of your motorcycle. Minimizing those spaces can help deter drivers from trying to share the lane with you.

3. A plastic, shatter-resistant face shield:

Is not necessary if you have a windshield.

Only protects your eyes.

Protects more than just your eyes.

Does not protect your face as well as goggles.

A plastic, shatter-resistant face shield helps protect your entire face, including your eyes. Goggles can protect your eyes, but not the rest of your face. A windshield is not an adequate substitute for either.

4. To lessen your chances of being involved in a crash, you should:

Use your turn signals to indicate that you plan to change lanes.

Tailgate other drivers.

Keep your eyes focused no more than 15 feet in front of your motorcycle.

Not use a headlight during the day.

To lessen the chances of a crash occurring, you should make yourself visible, communicate your intentions to others, maintain adequate space cushions, search your path of travel at least 12 seconds ahead, identify and separate hazards, and be prepared to react to changing conditions.

5. Mirror checks:

Are unimportant.

Should only be done on long trips.

Should be part of your normal scanning routine.

Are not helpful since you can’t do anything about what is behind you.

Frequent mirror checks should be part of your normal searching routine. Additionally, make a special point of using your mirrors before changing lanes, when stopping at an intersection, and before slowing down.
