When approaching a blind curve, a rider should:

  1. Accelerate to get through quickly

  2. Stay as close to the centerline as possible

  3. Move to the outside of the curve

  4. Reduce speed and be prepared for obstacles

The correct answer is: Reduce speed and be prepared for obstacles

When approaching a blind curve, it is important for a rider to reduce speed and be prepared for obstacles. Blind curves are areas where visibility is limited, and there could be unexpected hazards such as oncoming vehicles, debris, or wildlife in the roadway. By reducing speed, a rider gives themselves more time to react to any potential dangers that may be present in the curve. This cautious approach increases safety and gives the rider more control over their motorcycle in case they need to maneuver quickly. Accelerating to get through quickly, staying close to the centerline, and moving to the outside of the curve are not safe practices when approaching a blind curve as they increase the risk of a collision or running off the road.
