19. Linked and integrated braking systems:

Explanation
Linked braking systems apply both brakes when the rider applies either one. An integrated braking system is a variant of this in which partial front braking is applied any time the rear brake is activated. These braking systems ensure that both brakes are used each time the rider slows or stops.

20. When you are being passed from behind, you should:

Explanation
When you are being passed from behind, stay in the center portion of your lane. This will discourage the other driver from re-entering your lane before it is safe.

21. When riding at night, how should your following distance compare to your following distance during the day?

Explanation
Distances are difficult to judge in the dark because visual cues (like shadows and light contrasts) can be missing or distorted. You should allow a longer following distance when riding at night than you do when riding during the day.

22. A plastic, shatter-resistant face shield:

Explanation
A plastic, shatter-resistant face shield protects your entire face in a crash. Goggles protect your eyes, but not the rest of your face. A windshield is not an adequate substitute for a face shield or goggles.

23. What can help reduce the risk of a head or neck injury in the event of a crash?

Explanation
Wearing a helmet is the single most effective thing you can do to reduce the risk of head or neck injuries in the event of a crash.

24. When passing another vehicle:

Explanation
Passing must be completed within the posted speed limits, and only in areas where passing is safe and legal.

25. If braking in a curve:

Explanation
It is possible to use both brakes while turning, but it must be done with great care. Some of the tires' usual traction is being used to make the turn while the motorcycle is leaning, so less traction is available for stopping.
