7. When may you not need to increase your following distance?

When the road is slippery

When there is a lot of traffic

When you can see through the vehicle in front of you

When it is raining

An increased following distance 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 longer following distance.

8. When a vehicle attempts to pass you from behind, you should:

Move to the center portion of the lane.

Move to the left portion of the lane.

Move to the right portion of the lane.

Not be concerned about which portion of the lane you are using.

When being passed, it is generally best to ride in the center portion of your lane. Being too close to the passing vehicle increases the risk of a collision.

9. A larger cushion of space may not be necessary if:

The pavement is slippery.

You cannot see through the vehicle ahead of you.

Weather and traffic conditions are perfect.

Traffic is heavy.

Your following distance should be larger than usual when you are traveling under imperfect conditions. Increase your following distance if pavement is slippery, you can't see through the vehicle in front of you, or traffic is heavy.

10. When riding, the best protection for an operator is:

A cushion of space between their vehicle and other vehicles.

A good leather jacket.

Sturdy boots.

A good understanding of motorcycle laws.

Your first and best protection against collisions with other vehicles is simply to keep your distance from them. The only way to be sure you will have enough time to react to mistakes made by other drivers is to leave plenty of space between you and the vehicles around you. Wearing proper gear is also important when riding a motorcycle.

11. Which vest or jacket color would best help you to be seen?

Red

Black

Silver

Blue

Wearing brightly-colored clothing while riding will increase your chances of being seen. Bright oranges, yellows, reds, or greens are best and are preferable to drab or dark colors.

12. Maximum front-line braking is accomplished by:

Using the rear brake only.

Using the front brake only.

Using both brakes.

Using the rear brake while downshifting.

Maximum straight-line braking is accomplished by fully applying both the front and rear brakes without locking either wheel. You should always use both brakes every time you slow or stop.
