Moving quickly through the blind spot of another vehicle is crucial for maintaining safety while passing. When you find yourself beside another vehicle, especially a larger one, it can be difficult for the driver of that vehicle to see you. By accelerating and moving quickly through their blind spot, you reduce the time you are in a potentially dangerous position where the other driver may not be aware of your presence.

Additionally, the quick maneuver allows you to get into a lane where you have clear visibility ahead and room to operate your motorcycle safely without lingering in a hazardous area. This action helps prevent accidents caused by sudden lane changes from the vehicle you are passing or the driver not seeing you due to their limited visibility.

In contrast, other options do not promote safety during the maneuver. Honking to alert the other vehicle is generally unnecessary and can be distracting. Maintaining your speed might leave you directly in the driver's blind spot for too long. Lastly, waiting for the vehicle to be completely in front of you could lead to a collision if the other driver changes lanes unexpectedly while you are still attempting to pass.
