19. When approaching an uneven surface, such as a bump or pothole, you should rise slightly off of your seat:

So you can jump off the motorcycle if you need to.

So your legs can absorb the shock.

So other drivers can see you better.

So you can get a better view of the uneven surface.

When riding over an uneven surface, rising off of your seat will allow your joints to absorb some of the force of impact. This will make it less likely that the impact of the surface will throw you off of the motorcycle.

20. A motorcyclist is well-protected if they are wearing:

A jacket that allows the arms to be exposed.

Boots with tall heels.

Leather gloves.

Shoes that stop below their ankle.

For your protection while riding, it is best to wear a jacket and pants that cover your arms and legs completely. Boots or shoes should be tall and sturdy enough to cover and support your ankles. Footwear should have low heels that will not catch on the foot pegs or rough road surfaces. Gloves made of leather or another durable material will help protect your hands in the event of a crash while providing you with an improved grip on the controls.

21. When being followed too closely by another vehicle, you should:

Speed up.

Move onto the shoulder.

Allow the other driver to pass you.

Exit the roadway.

The best way to deal with a tailgater is to get them ahead of you. If you can do so safely, change lanes and let them pass. Speeding up may only increase the danger by encouraging them to continue tailgating you at a higher speed.

22. If using a sidecar to transport a load, you should:

Allow the load to move freely.

Secure the load so its weight does not shift.

Place the load unsecured in the seat.

Secure the load near the front of the sidecar.

Loads carried in a sidecar should be secured so that they do not shift and affect the motorcycle's handling. Loads should be distributed toward the rear of the sidecar to reduce tipping of the nose of the sidecar in the event of a sudden left turn.

23. When downshifting, you should:

Shift through multiple gears at a time.

Shift through one gear at a time.

Always shift all the way down to neutral first.

Accelerate.

When shifting into a lower gear, shift down one gear at a time and ease out the clutch through the friction zone between each downshift.

24. When riding in traffic, it is important to remember that motorcycles:

Are too small to have blind spots.

Have blind spots that are too small to cause any problems.

Have blind spots that require head checks.

Have only one blind spot.

Like any other vehicle, motorcycles have blind spots. Always turn your head to check for traffic in your blind spot before changing lanes.

25. When may you not need to increase your following distance?

When the road is slippery

When there is a lot of traffic

When you can see through the vehicle in front of you

When it is raining

An increased following distance is needed if your motorcycle will take longer than normal to stop. If the pavement is slippery, if you cannot see through the vehicle ahead of you, or if traffic is heavy and another driver may try to squeeze in front of you, open up to a longer following distance.
