1. When riding, you should:

Turn your head and shoulders to look through turns.

Keep your arms straight.

Keep your knees away from the gas tank.

Turn just your head and eyes to look through turns.

When making a turn, you should look through the turn to where you want to go. Turn just your head, not your shoulders, and keep your eyes level with the horizon.

2. Anti-Lock Braking Systems (ABS) are designed to:

Prevent skidding and wheel lock-up.

Prevent brakes from activating if the roadway is dry.

Apply brakes automatically.

Warn you when your brake pad needs replacing.

Some motorcycles are equipped with an Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS). ABS is designed to prevent skidding and wheel lock-up when motorcyclists are stopping in straight-line, panic situations. ABS operates when maximum pressure is applied to both the front and rear brake controls. If electronic sensors detect the possibility of a wheel lock, brake hydraulic pressure is released then re-applied to maintain maximum braking effectiveness.

3. What is often found in the center portion of the lane?

A landing strip

An oily or greasy strip

Lane markings

Ice

Drippings from cars tend to form an oily strip in the center of each lane. Unless conditions are wet, it is usually still safe for a motorcycle to operate on the center strip.

4. When riding a motorcycle:

It is a good idea to drag your feet.

Your toes should be pointed downward.

You should keep your feet firmly on the footrests.

You should try to keep your feet away from the controls.

To maintain proper balance, your feet should be placed firmly on the footrests and not dragged on the ground. Do not point your toes downward, as this may cause them to catch on the road. Keep your feet near the controls so you can reach them quickly, if needed.

5. A face shield:

Provides protection for the eyes and face.

Is not recommended.

Is required.

Does not protect the face as well as goggles.

A plastic, impact-resistant face shield provides the greatest degree of protection for a wearer's eyes and face. Eyeglasses or sunglasses are not an adequate substitute. In Vermont, you are not legally required to wear eye or face protection if your motorcycle has a windshield, though it is recommended.

6. If you wait an hour per alcoholic drink before you ride your motorcycle:

You cannot be arrested for drinking and riding.

Your skills will not be affected.

Side effects may still remain.

You will be fine as long as you ride slowly.

On average, a person's body can eliminate the alcohol content of about one drink per hour. However, it is still possible for alcohol to accumulate in a person's system even if they consume only one drink per hour. This accumulation can still affect their ability to ride safely.
