1. A good way to handle a tailgater is to:

Encourage the tailgater to pass by slowing down or changing lanes.

Speed up to put distance between you and the tailgater.

Ignore the tailgater.

If you can do so safely, change lanes and let the tailgater pass. Speeding up may only result in them continuing to tailgate you at a higher speed, increasing the danger.

2. To pass another vehicle, a motorcyclist:

May stay in the same lane as the vehicle.

Must use an unobstructed lane.

Can ride on the shoulder.

A motorcyclist may not pass another vehicle within the same lane. Lane sharing is dangerous and usually prohibited.

3. A plastic, shatter-resistant face shield:

Is not necessary if you have a windshield.

Only protects your eyes.

Helps protect your whole face.

A plastic, shatter-resistant face shield provides protection for your entire face. A windshield is not an adequate substitute for a good face shield.

4. If you approach an uncontrolled intersection at the same time as another vehicle:

The vehicle on the left should yield to the vehicle on the right.

You should flash your headlight to signal that the other vehicle should proceed.

You should continue through the intersection and expect the other vehicle to stop.

If you approach an intersection that is not marked with signs or traffic lights at the same time as another driver, the driver on the left must yield to the driver on the right.

5. When being followed by a tailgater, you should:

Allow them to pass.

Speed up.

Not change how you are riding.

The best way to handle a tailgater is to allow them to pass you. Speeding up may result in them continuing to tailgate you, just at a higher speed.

6. When scanning the area around your motorcycle, you should:

Look for potential escape routes near intersections, shopping areas, or schools.

See if you can travel faster than other vehicles.

Stare at pedestrians.

While searching the road for potential hazards, focus on looking for escape routes in or around intersections, shopping areas, schools, and construction zones.

7. When passing a truck on a two-lane road, you should:

Not return to your original lane until you can see the front of the truck in your rearview mirror.

Return to your original lane as soon as the truck is behind you.

Return to your original lane when you feel you have enough space.

When passing a truck, you should only return to your original lane when you can see the entire front of the truck in your rearview mirror.
