1. When operating a motorcycle:

You do not need to carry your license with you.

You must carry your license with you.

Your license must be affixed to your helmet.

Your license must be affixed to your right arm.

You must carry your valid driver license with the appropriate license endorsement any time you ride a motorcycle on public roads. If you have a learner's permit, you must carry the permit with you during every ride as well.

2. To increase your chances of being seen at an intersection, you should:

Try to make eye contact with other drivers.

Ride with your headlight on.

Reduce your space cushion.

Ride in a weaving pattern.

To increase your chances of being seen at an intersection, leave your headlight turned on and ride in a lane position that most easily allows oncoming traffic to see you. Maintain a space cushion that allows you to take evasive action if necessary. Never assume that another driver sees you, even if you make eye contact with the driver.

3. To help provide space for drivers attempting to merge into your lane from an entrance ramp, you should:

Stay in your lane.

Merge into the next lane, if possible.

Not worry about it, since they are the ones trying to merge.

Ride on the far left shoulder.

Drivers merging onto a highway and into your lane may not notice your motorcycle. Give them plenty of space to safely merge by moving into a different lane, if you can.

4. If you are riding when it starts to rain, it is a good idea to:

Ride down the center of the lane.

Increase your speed.

Ride in the tire tracks left by cars.

Pull onto the shoulder of the road.

Because of the presence of oil deposits, the center strip of a lane can be hazardous when wet. When rain starts to fall, it is best to ride in the tire tracks left by cars. It is advisable to reduce your speed on wet surfaces.

5. More than half of all motorcycle crashes:

Happen at night.

Are caused by bald tires.

Occur at speeds above 55 mph.

Involve inexperienced riders.

More than half of all motorcycle crashes involve riders who have been using their motorcycle for less than six months. Most crashes take place in broad daylight when the riders are traveling at low speeds.

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

Approaching a police officer.

Someone is following too closely.

There is a stop sign ahead.

Your signals are not working.

It is a good idea to flash your brake light before slowing if someone is following you too closely. The other driver may be focused on you and be unaware of the upcoming hazard that is causing you to slow down. It is also important to flash your brake light if you are about to slow down in a place where other drivers might not expect you to do so.

7. 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.

8. Where is the throttle usually located?

Near the left footrest

Near the right footrest

On the left handle grip

On the right handle grip

The throttle of a motorcycle is usually located on the right handle grip. Be sure to know where all of your motorcycle's controls are located before riding.
