Question 7488
If your motorcycle breaks down on a roadway, how must you signal it if it represents an obstacle to traffic?
- With a luminous hazard warning device, which you are required to carry.
- With the hazard lights, if your motorcycle has them installed.
- You must use the position lights.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: With the hazard lights, if your motorcycle has them installed.
If a breakdown leaves your motorcycle obstructing the roadway, you must turn on the hazard lights, if equipped. They are optional on a motorcycle, and a motorcycle is not required to carry a V-16 device. Position lights must be turned on when required, for example at night, but not in every case. In the image, the motorcycle is stopped on the shoulder with its turn signals flashing.
