7. When riding a motorcycle, you should:

Always avoid the left portion of a lane.

Always avoid the right portion of a lane.

Always avoid the center portion of a lane.

Use whichever portion of the lane is safest.

There is no single lane position that you always need to avoid. Adjust your position in response to changing conditions on the road.

8. Which of the following is not a piece of protective clothing for a motorcycle rider?

Jacket

Boots

Gloves

Sandals

When riding, it is safest for a motorcyclist to wear a helmet, eye protection, a jacket, long pants, sturdy boots, and gloves.

9. The best way to handle tailgaters is to:

Change lanes and let them pass.

Use your horn and make obscene gestures.

Speed up to put distance between you and the tailgater.

Come to a complete stop.

If possible, change lanes and let a tailgater pass your vehicle. Speeding up may result in the driver continuing to tailgate you at a higher speed, thereby increasing the danger.

10. Which of the following is a poor reason to sound your horn?

A driver in the lane next to you is too close to the vehicle ahead of them.

A parked car has a person in the driver’s seat.

You want people to look at your motorcycle.

You are passing someone who is in the street.

It is a good idea to sound your horn before riding past a vehicle or pedestrian that may move into your lane. If you see a driver in an adjacent lane driving too closely to the vehicle ahead of them, you may assume that they want to pass and may cut in front of you to do so. If you see a person in the driver's seat of a parked car, or if you see a pedestrian or bicyclist in the street, it is a good idea to sound your horn as you pass.

11. When you have mounted your motorcycle, you should do all of the following, except:

Make sure the mirrors are clean.

Make sure the horn works.

Close the fuel supply valve.

Make sure the clutch works smoothly.

After mounting your motorcycle, you should make sure the clutch, throttle, horn, and brakes all work properly. Clean and adjust the mirrors and make sure that the fuel supply valve is open.

Slow or stop

Left turn

Right turn

Backing up

Instead of or in addition to mechanical turn signals, operators may use hand signals to indicate turns or stops. If an operator's left arm is bent at the elbow and pointing upward, it means the operator plans to turn right or change lanes to the right.
