Use the whole ___ of the lane to help other roadway users see you better.

• A. Height.
• B. Length.
• C. Depth.
• D. Width.

Answer: (D)

Being seen by other road users is improved when you take advantage of the lane’s full width. Riding near the center of the lane—using the whole width from one edge to the other—makes you more visible to drivers in adjacent lanes and to drivers turning across your path, and it gives you room to maneuver if a hazard appears. This horizontal space in your lane is what helps with visibility and safety, not height, length, or depth. So occupying the full lane width is the best approach to be seen and to stay safe.
