Before carrying a passenger, you should make sure the passenger:

  • A.Sits sideways to see the scenery better
  • B.Holds onto the motorcycle's exhaust pipe
  • C.Has a proper seat and footrests, wears a helmet as required, and leans with you in turns
  • D.Keeps both feet off the footrests at stops
Correct answer

C. Has a proper seat and footrests, wears a helmet as required, and leans with you in turns

Why

A passenger needs a proper seat and footrests, must wear a helmet when the law requires it, and should lean with the rider in turns. Brief the passenger before the ride so their movements do not surprise you.
