Motorcyclists riding in a group should avoid pairing up because:

When traveling in a group, it is never recommended for motorcyclists to ride in pairs. Neither rider will have adequate room to maneuver to avoid hazards.

• A merging driver may not see both riders.
• Reflections from both helmets may make it difficult for the riders to see.
• Riding in pairs does not allow riders the necessary space to maneuver.
• It is too difficult for riders on the left side of a pairing to exit a highway.
