29. When passing parked vehicles, motorcycle riders should be especially cautious of:

Motorists looking for a place to park.

Cars leaving their parking spaces.

Oncoming traffic.

Noise.

When passing parked vehicles, use caution. You may encounter vehicles pulling away from the curb or leaving parking spaces.

30. Riding with a passenger:

Usually results in no difference in handling a motorcycle.

Is usually safe for beginning riders.

Can affect the handling of a motorcycle.

Is encouraged to get operators used to different riding situations.

A passenger puts extra weight on a motorcycle, which causes the motorcycle to handle differently. Only experienced riders should carry passengers.

31. When using a motorcycle with which you are unfamiliar, you should:

Test the seat to make sure it is comfortable.

Assume the motorcycle is in good riding condition.

Work the throttle, clutch, and brakes a few times before riding.

Ride as you usually do, since most bikes are similar.

Since all motorcycles are somewhat different, you should be very careful when using one that is new to you. Familiarize yourself with the motorcycle before setting off. Learn the gear pattern before riding by working the throttle, clutch, and brakes a few times.

32. To get the best possible protection, wear a helmet that:

Fits snugly.

Is well-worn and broken in.

Is pretty loose.

Does not have a chinstrap.

Choose a helmet that meets U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) and state standards. It should fit you snugly all the way around and be free of obvious defects.

33. Which of the following surfaces does not provide poor traction?

Wet pavement

Dry pavement

Lane markings

Snow

A number of surfaces can provide poor traction for tires. Wet pavement; roads covered in loose gravel or sand; muddy, snowy, or icy areas; and painted lane markings can be more hazardous for a motorcyclist than dry pavement.

34. When consumed together, the effects of alcohol and drugs:

Can be more pronounced than when either is consumed alone.

Are less dangerous than when either is consumed alone.

Are usually minimal.

Often balance out.

Many drugs, including prescription and over-the-counter medications, can impair your ability to ride safely. Some medications become even more dangerous when combined with alcohol.

35. Taking corners too fast:

Can cause the rider to go into another lane.

Is better than going too slowly.

Often causes the rider to stay in their lane.

Is acceptable because motorcycles are smaller than other types of vehicles.

Taking a corner too fast may cause you to cross into another lane or go off the road. Be sure to decelerate before beginning to take a turn or curve.
