16. If attempting to brake in a curve, you should:

Brake more gradually than you would on a straightaway.

Brake as hard as you would on a straightaway.

Wait until you are not in the curve to brake.

Only use the rear brake.

Because tires have less traction when a motorcycle is leaning than when it is upright, always try to position your motorcycle in an upright position before braking. If you must brake while in a curve, apply the brakes more smoothly and gradually than if your motorcycle was traveling on a straightaway.

17. ______ are often used on road surfaces to direct operators into the proper lanes for turning.

Flashing red lights

Flashing yellow lights

Dashed white lines

Painted white arrows

When approaching an intersection, a rider may come across white arrows painted onto the pavement. These arrows tell operators the direction in which they must travel from the indicated lane after following the instructions of any signs or signals.

18. When riding downhill or shifting into first gear, you may need to:

Use your brakes to slow down before downshifting safely.

Speed up before downshifting safely.

Swerve to the left.

Flash your brakes to ensure that drivers behind you know you are downshifting.

Before shifting into a lower gear, make sure you are riding slowly enough to shift safely. Downshifting while going too fast may cause the motorcycle to lurch and the rear wheel to skid. When riding downhill or shifting into first gear, you may need to use the brakes to slow to a safe speed before downshifting.

19. To reduce the amount of time you need to react to a hazard, you should:

Always ride under the speed limit.

Cover the clutch and brakes.

Shift into neutral when slowing.

Pull the clutch when turning.

In potential high-risk areas, such as school zones or construction zones, cover the clutch and both brakes. This cuts down the amount of time you will need to react to a hazard.

20. What is the best lane position for a motorcycle?

The left position

The center position

The right position

There is no single best lane position.

No single lane position is always best and no single lane position should always be avoided. Adjust your lane position as road and traffic conditions change, choosing a position that will maximize your space cushion and allow other drivers to see you more easily.
