8. When riding behind another vehicle, you should position yourself:

To be seen in the vehicle’s side mirror.

To be seen in the vehicle’s rearview mirror.

To be seen through the vehicle's passenger window.

If you are following a car, the driver is most likely to notice you if you position yourself behind them in the center of your lane. This lane position places you in the driver's rearview mirror. Most drivers check their rearview mirrors much more often than their side mirrors.

9. If you borrow a motorcycle, you should:

Assume all controls are in the same location as they are on your motorcycle.

Immediately take it out on the highway.

Get familiar with it in a controlled area.

All motorcycles are at least somewhat different. Before riding a motorcycle that is new to you, take the time to learn where all of the controls are. Ride the motorcycle in a controlled area to get used to it before taking it out on the road.

10. When you must brake and swerve to avoid a hazard, you should:

Perform both actions at the same time.

Only brake.

Perform one action, then the other.

If you must both swerve and brake to avoid a hazard, you should separate the actions. Brake then swerve, or swerve then brake, but do not perform both actions at the same time.

11. The best lane position for a motorcycle:

Is in the left part of a lane, next to the centerline.

Is in the right part of a lane, next to the curb.

Can vary depending on road and traffic conditions.

There is no single lane position that is best at all times. Choose the lane position that allows the most visibility and space around you. Change your lane position as traffic situations change.

12. You have an improved chance of avoiding serious injury in a crash if you wear:

Face or eye protection.

A baseball cap.

Sneakers.

Wearing a helmet is your best defense against injury while riding a motorcycle. Wearing a plastic, shatter-resistant face shield can help protect your face from injury in a crash.

13. All motorcycles must have:

A rearview mirror mounted on the left handlebar.

A rearview mirror mounted on the right handlebar.

A rearview mirror, but only if the operator is under the age of 21.

Tennessee law requires all motorcycles to have a rearview mirror mounted on the left handlebar in an upright position.

14. You should pick a lane position that:

Best increases your visibility and allows for a safe cushion of space.

You like, without regard to others.

Gets you close to other vehicles.

Position yourself in the portion of the lane where you are most likely to be seen by other road users and where you can maintain a space cushion around your motorcycle. There is no single lane position that is always best and no single lane position that should always be avoided. A responsible rider adjusts their position as conditions change.
