1. Just like cars, motorcycles have blind spots. When switching lanes, you should:

Turn your head and check your blind spot.

Look only at your mirrors.

Rely on your peripheral vision.

Slow down so any vehicle in your blind spot can pass you.

Blind spots, by definition, are areas that you cannot see by just looking in your mirrors. Turn your head to the side and check over your shoulder for vehicles in your blind spot before you change lanes.

2. Brightly-colored helmets:

May make it easier for the wearer to be seen.

Can be distracting.

Don’t help to improve a rider's visibility.

Are not permitted.

Choosing a brightly-colored helmet is recommended. Not only will the helmet protect you in the case of a crash, but the bright color of the helmet will help other road users see you.

3. What is the best lane position for a motorcycle operator?

The left position in the lane

The center position in the lane

The right position in the lane

There is no single lane position that is best for all situations.

There is no lane position that is always best and no lane position that should always be avoided. Select a lane position that is appropriate for your current riding conditions, allowing you to maintain an adequate space cushion and be visible to others.

4. The Motorcycle Safety Foundation recommends a SEE strategy to make safe judgments while riding. What does the "S" stand for?

Stop

Shift

Swerve

Experienced riders use a SEE strategy while riding to make safe judgements. "SEE" stands for Search, Evaluate, and Execute.

5. The best way to handle tailgaters is to:

Change lanes and let them pass.

Use your horn and make obscene gestures.

Speed up to put distance between you and the tailgater.

Come to a complete stop.

If possible, change lanes and let a tailgater pass your vehicle. Speeding up may result in the driver continuing to tailgate you at a higher speed, thereby increasing the danger.

6. Your lane position should not:

Increase your ability to see and be seen.

Help you avoid surface hazards.

Provide you with an escape route.

Welcome other drivers into your lane.

A properly chosen lane position can optimize a number of safety factors. Your lane position should keep you out of other vehicles’ blind spots, increase your ability to see and be seen, help you avoid surface hazards, help you avoid wind blasts from other vehicles, and provide you with an escape route from any hazards that might arise. You should be positioned in a way that discourages other drivers from trying to share your lane.
