1. When riding in a group, it is best to put inexperienced riders near the front because:

Experienced riders can more easily keep an eye on them.

They will get lost if they are leading.

They may slow the group down as the leaders.

They will ride too fast in any other position.

In a group, less experienced riders should ride toward the front, just behind the leader, so more experienced riders can easily watch them.

2. When passing parked cars, which part of the lane should you usually use?

The left portion of the lane

The center portion of the lane

The right portion of the lane

Either the left or right portion of the lane

When passing a row of parked cars, it is often safest to ride in the left portion of your lane. Riding in the left portion will keep you farthest from any opening car doors, people stepping out from between cars, and cars pulling out of parking spaces.

3. Where is the clutch lever usually located?

On the left handgrip

On the right handgrip

Near the left footrest

Near the right footrest

The clutch lever of a motorcycle is usually located on the left handgrip.

4. If your front wheel begins to skid, you should:

Keep the front brake engaged and ride out the skid.

Keep the front brake engaged and release the rear brake.

Immediately release and re-engage the front brake.

Release the front brake and increase the pressure on the rear brake.

If your front wheel locks while braking, you should release the front brake immediately and completely before re-applying it smoothly.

5. If another driver is following you too closely, it is best to:

Not worry about them.

Change lanes and let them pass.

Speed up.

Get off the roadway.

The best way to deal with a tailgater is to get them in front of you. If you can do so safely, change lanes and let them pass. Increasing your speed may only encourage the driver to tailgate you at a higher speed.

6. As weight transfers to the front of your bike while you are braking, you should:

Gradually increase pressure to the front brake.

Use more rear brake pressure.

Not worry. The weight transfer will not have an effect on your motorcycle.

Try to lock the front tire.

While you are braking, gradually increase the amount of pressure applied to the front brake lever as the weight of the bike is transferred forward to the front tire.

7. What can you do to increase your chances of being seen at an intersection?

Ride while using your headlight.

Swerve within your lane to draw attention to your motorcycle.

Raise your arms.

Avoid using your brakes.

To increase your chances of being seen at an intersection, use your headlight and ride in a lane position that creates the best view of oncoming traffic. Maintain a space cushion around your motorcycle that allows you to take evasive action.

8. When riding in a group, inexperienced riders should position themselves:

In the front of the group.

Just behind the leader.

Close to the back of the group.

At the tail end of the group.

In a group of motorcyclists, less experienced riders should be positioned toward the front, just behind the leader. This ensures that they will not have to chase after the rest of the group. This positioning also allows them to be watched from behind by more experienced riders.
