19. Most motorcycles:

Have only a front brake.

Have only a rear brake.

Have brakes in both the front and rear.

Have three brakes: one in the front, one in the rear, and an emergency brake.

Motorcycles generally have two brakes, one for the front wheel and one for the rear wheel.

20. Taking corners too fast:

Can cause the rider to go into another lane.

Is better than going too slowly.

Often causes the rider to stay in their lane.

Is acceptable because motorcycles are smaller than other types of vehicles.

Taking a corner too fast may cause you to cross into another lane or go off the road. Be sure to decelerate before beginning to take a turn or curve.

21. The best source of information for your motorcycle is:

The owner’s manual.

A general book about motorcycles.

Someone who has a different type of motorcycle.

A television show about motorcycle riding.

To be sure you are familiar with the specific type of motorcycle that you are planning to ride, read the owner's manual before riding it for the first time. This is particularly important if you are riding a borrowed motorcycle.

22. Which of the following types of clothing can help you to be seen by other drivers?

Darkly-colored clothes

Clothes made from synthetic materials

Reflective clothes

A leather jacket

Be sure to wear gear that can help you and your motorcycle to be spotted by other road users. Bright, reflective clothing can make it easier for others to see you.

23. Can clothing help prevent injuries in the event of a crash?

No, clothing is not really for protection.

No, clothing is more of a personal choice.

Yes, but only if garments are very loose and flap in the wind.

Yes, if pants and a jacket cover your arms and legs completely.

Appropriate clothing can reduce the risk of injury in a crash. Choose a jacket and pants that cover your arms and legs, are made of sturdy material, and are snug enough that they do not flap in the wind.

24. 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.

25. When looking for a protective jacket or pair of pants, you should look for:

Items made of leather.

Items made of polyester.

Items made of light materials.

Items that are darkly-colored.

It is safest to wear long pants and a jacket to fully cover your arms and legs while riding. Clothing made of leather can provide the highest level of protection.
