Before you start the test, please answer the question below regarding your insurance status.

Without insurance you will not be able to drive in Colorado

1. In hot weather, wearing a riding jacket:

Can help protect against heat exhaustion and dehydration.

Is discouraged because it can cause heat-related problems.

Should only be done if the jacket is a light color.

Is not important.

A riding jacket and long pants should still be worn when riding in hot weather. In addition to their other safety benefits, they can protect a rider from heat exhaustion and dehydration.

2. A plastic, shatter-resistant face shield protects the wearer from:

Insects.

Headlight glare.

Noise.

Sunshine.

In addition to protecting your face from injury in a crash, a face shield protects you from wind, dust, dirt, rain, insects, and pebbles thrown up from surrounding vehicles.

3. Motorcycle riders:

Should wear hearing protection at all times to prevent hearing damage.

Should only wear hearing protection during long rides.

Should not wear hearing protection because it will muffle other noises, such as horns and sirens.

Do not need to use hearing protection if they are using a helmet.

Longterm exposure to wind and engine noise can cause permanent hearing damage, even if the rider is wearing a full-face helmet. Wearing ear plugs or other hearing protection can guard against damage while still allowing the wearer to hear important sounds like horns and sirens.

Plans to turn left.

Is about to stop.

Plans to turn right.

Is about to slow down.

Instead of mechanical turn signals, operators may use hand signals to indicate turns or stops. If an operator's left arm is bent at the elbow and pointing upward, it means the operator plans to turn right or change lanes to the right.

5. If your front tire locks while braking, you should:

Keep the brake engaged until you come to a full stop.

Release both brakes and coast to a stop.

Release the brake lever and use only the rear brake.

Release the brake lever until the tire regains traction.

If your front wheel locks while braking, you should release the brake lever until the tire regains traction and re-apply the brake.

6. On which of the following surfaces does a motorcycle have the best traction?

Dry pavement

Gravel

Snow

Leaves

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