7. Moving into another lane while taking a curve is often the result of:

Taking the turn too fast.

Lanes that are too narrow.

Not knowing how to steer.

Lanes that are too wide.

Trying to enter a curve or turn at a speed that is too fast for conditions may cause you to cross into another lane of traffic or leave the road entirely.

8. You should do all of the following to lesson your chances of being in a crash, except:

Be visible by wearing proper clothing and using your headlight.

Communicate your intentions by using your turn signals and brake light.

Search for hazards in your path.

Hope the other drivers see you.

To minimize your risk of a crash, ensure that you are visible to other drivers, communicating your intentions to other drivers, and maintaining a cushion of space around you. You should search for, identify, and separate hazards. Be prepared to react to anything that happens.

9. When braking, you should:

Always use both brakes.

Only use the front brake.

Only use the rear brake on slippery surfaces, such as wet pavement.

Only use the rear brake.

Use both brakes every time you slow or stop, regardless of the condition of the road.

10. When being passed from behind, you should:

Try to move onto the shoulder.

Use the left portion of your lane.

Use the center portion of your lane.

Use the right portion of your lane.

When being passed, the center portion of the lane is generally the safest lane position for a motorcyclist. Riding on the side nearest the passing vehicle increases the risk of colliding with it. Riding on the side farthest from the passing vehicle can also be dangerous because it may prompt the driver to return to your lane before it is safe to do so.

11. The best source of information for your motorcycle is:

The owner’s manual.

A general book about motorcycles.

Someone who has a different type of motorcycle.

A television show about motorcycle riding.

To be sure you are familiar with the specific type of motorcycle that you are planning to ride, read the owner's manual before riding it for the first time. This is particularly important if you are riding a borrowed motorcycle.

12. When being passed, you should not move to the portion of the lane farthest from the passing driver because it:

Discourages the passing driver from cutting into your lane too early.

Encourages the passing driver to cut into your lane too early.

Encourages the passing driver to complete the pass as quickly as possible.

Encourages other drivers to pass you.

Moving into the portion of your lane farthest from a passing vehicle is potentially dangerous because it could encourage the driver to return to your lane before it is safe to do so. It is safest to stay in the center of a lane when being passed.
