16. Most motorcycle crashes happen:

On short trips.

On long trips.

After at least an hour of riding.

After more than 8 hours of riding.

Most motorcycle crashes happen on trips shorter than five miles, just a few minutes after the rider starts out.

17. Signs informing road users about the locations of services are:

Blue with white letters or symbols.

Green with white letters or symbols.

Orange with black letters.

Red with white letters.

Signs announcing the presence of services (such as rest areas, gas stations, campgrounds, or hospitals) are blue with white lettering and/or symbols.

18. 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.

19. When riding through a curve, a group of motorcyclists should:

Ride in a staggered formation.

Ride in a single-file formation.

Ride in a side-by-side formation.

Use both lanes if possible.

While a staggered formation is generally recommended, riders in a group should move into a single-file formation when taking curves, taking turns, entering a highway, or leaving a highway.

20. The center portion of a lane usually contains an oily strip. This part of the lane is:

Never safe for motorcyclists.

Usually safe, unless the road is wet.

Usually safe, unless it is sunny outside.

Always safe, no matter the weather conditions.

Oily drippings from cars collect in a strip in the center of a traffic lane. Unless the road is wet, this area will generally still provide enough traction for motorcyclists to ride safely. Because the strip is usually no more than two feet wide, it is often possible to ride to one side of the strip and still be in the center portion of the lane.
