1. A motorcycle operator can improve their visibility by:

Wearing darkly-colored clothing.

Turning off their headlight.

Following another vehicle very closely.

Wearing brightly-colored clothing.

To maximize your chances of being seen by other road users, you should wear brightly-colored clothing with reflective materials, use your headlight at all times, and use your signals and brake light properly.

2. 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.

3. When downshifting, you should:

Shift through multiple gears at a time.

Shift through one gear at a time.

Always shift all the way down to neutral first.

Accelerate.

When shifting into a lower gear, shift down one gear at a time and ease out the clutch through the friction zone between each downshift.

4. To effectively provide protection for a motorcycle rider, pants should:

Be made of a soft material.

Be made of a heavy material.

Fit loosely enough that they flap in the wind.

Be short and expose some parts of the legs.

For your protection, you should wear pants that cover your entire legs and are made of leather or another sturdy synthetic material. Clothing should fit snugly enough that it does not flap in the wind but not so snugly that it restricts your movement.

5. Keep an expanded cushion of space between your motorcycle and the vehicle in front of you:

When conditions will make stopping more difficult than usual.

When you want to look at the scenery.

To encourage other drivers to cut you off.

To prevent the driver in front of you from knowing you are there.

An expanded cushion of space is needed if your motorcycle will take longer than normal to stop. If the pavement is slippery, if you cannot see through the vehicle ahead of you, or if traffic is heavy and another driver may try to squeeze in front of you, open up to a larger following distance.

6. If you are feeling tired while riding, you should:

Keep going and hope to wake up.

Ride faster.

Ride on the shoulder.

Get off the road and rest.

You should avoid riding if you are tired. When making a long trip, take rest breaks at least every two hours to reduce the risk of becoming fatigued.
