Motorcycle Permit Practice Test

Riding between lanes of stopped or slower-moving traffic is allowed to be done:

1. By experienced riders only

2. During rush hour

3. Between the first and second lanes

4. At high speeds only

The correct answer is: Between the first and second lanes

Riding between lanes of stopped or slower-moving traffic, also known as lane splitting, can be a controversial topic. Option C is the correct answer because it highlights an important safety consideration – it is safest to lane split between the first and second lanes. This is because it allows you to be more visible to drivers and reduces the chances of unexpected movements from vehicles in other lanes. Options A, B, and D are incorrect because lane splitting is not a practice reserved only for experienced riders, rush hour, or high speeds. In fact, lane splitting requires caution and should be done at a moderate speed to ensure the safety of both the motorcyclist and other vehicles on the road.
