Explanation
Drivers should exercise caution around motorcyclists, as they are more vulnerable and may make unexpected maneuvers, such as quick changes in speed or lane position, or swerving toward the center of a lane on a steel deck bridge. Additionally, motorists often slow down and rise off their seats when approaching a railroad crossing. Under these circumstances, passing motorcyclists can be dangerous, as it may cause them to lose balance.
