Question: In provinces where motorcycles are allowed in HOV lanes, what is a key consideration for a motorcyclist when merging into or out of these lanes?

Answer options:

• HOV lanes are always slower than regular lanes, so merge with caution. ✅ Other drivers may not expect a solitary motorcycle and visibility can be an issue.
• Motorcycles can exit HOV lanes at any point, regardless of markings.
• Always signal for an extended period (over 10 seconds) before merging.

Correct answer: Other drivers may not expect a solitary motorcycle and visibility can be an issue.

Explanation: Even though permitted, motorcyclists should be aware that other vehicle drivers may not anticipate a solo motorcycle in an HOV lane, making vigilance and good lane positioning critical during merging.
