10. The best lane position for a motorcycle:
  1. Is in the left part of a lane, next to the centerline.
  2. Is in the right part of a lane, next to the curb.
  3. Can vary depending on road and traffic conditions. ✓

Answer: C. Can vary depending on road and traffic conditions.

The best lane position can vary depending on road and traffic conditions. The handbook does not give one fixed spot that works everywhere. It says to change lane position based on traffic, road conditions and the curve of the road. It also says to vary your position as conditions warrant and to choose the part of the lane where you are most likely to be seen and can keep a space cushion. So the best position is a choice you keep adjusting, not a permanent left or right setting.
