Motorcyclists riding together in a group should normally use:
- A.A single-file line spread over a full mile
- B.Side-by-side riding in every lane position at once
- C.A random formation chosen by each rider
- D.A staggered formation, which keeps the group close while giving each rider a space cushion
Correct answer
D. A staggered formation, which keeps the group close while giving each rider a space cushion
Why
In a staggered formation, riders alternate left and right lane portions so each rider has room ahead and to the side. It keeps the group compact without crowding any one rider.
