What the Wisconsin Motorcyclists' Handbook says about lane position and being seen

  • Intersections

    As you approach an intersection, choose a lane position that makes you more visible to the driver, cover the clutch and both brakes and reduce your speed. p. 30

  • Signals

    A rider's turn signals matter even more than a car's because of the rider's added vulnerability: use them any time you plan to change lanes or turn, even when you think no one is around, since the car you don't see gives the most trouble. p. 33

  • Using your mirrors

    Some motorcycles have rounded (convex) mirrors, which show a wider view of the road behind than flat mirrors but make cars seem farther away than they are. p. 34

  • Riding at night

    At night it is harder to see and be seen, and other drivers have trouble picking out your lights among the car lights. p. 35
