1. Of the following, which should you not do to improve your safety when riding at night?

Increase your speed.

Reduce your speed.

Use your high beam headlight whenever possible.

Increase your following distance.

To ride safely at night, you should reduce your speed, use your high beam headlight when you are not riding near other vehicles, and increase your following distance. Take advantage of vehicles ahead of you to provide clues about the upcoming road. Their headlights may help to illuminate the road ahead and their taillights will bounce up and down if the vehicle is being driven over bumps on the road.

2. Motorcyclists riding in a group should avoid pairing up because:

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.

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.

3. Of the following, the colors that best allow riders to be seen are:

Orange and red.

Green and blue.

Purple and gold.

Black and white.

To make yourself visible to others, wearing clothing that is bright orange, red, yellow, or green is best.

4. When riding in fog, you should:

Use your high beam headlight.

Use your low beam headlight.

Use no lights.

Alternate between the low and high beams.

You should use your low beam headlight when riding in foggy conditions. Do not use your high beams when riding near other vehicles.

5. When selecting a helmet, it is important that all of the following are true, except:

The helmet is DOT-compliant.

The helmet looks nice.

The helmet fits snugly.

The helmet does not have any defects.

To ensure that you have a helmet that will provide the best possible protection, you should choose one that meets U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) standards. It should fit snugly all the way around and have no obvious defects, such as cracks, loose padding, or frayed straps.

6. When following another vehicle as a beginning rider, you should:

Maintain a minimum four-second following distance.

Get as close to the other vehicle as possible.

Never be concerned about your following distance.

Always ride in the left portion of the lane so the driver can easily see you.

A following distance of at least four seconds is recommended for beginning riders. Increase your following distance any time conditions are less than perfect.
