Info

Riding in a group of more than five motorcycles can become confusing both for the group and other traffic around you. If there are too many people, break it up into smaller groups. Ride in a staggered formation, with first bike on the left side of the lane, second on the right side, etc., but not side by side. Always keep at least a two-second following distance from the motorcycle directly in front of you. Group Riding & Passengers 47
Group Riding & Passengers 48 At a stoplight or stop sign, wait in pairs. Pass other vehicles individually, when safe - not in pairs or groups.
