1. Which of the following is not a factor in determining a person's blood alcohol content (BAC)?

The amount of alcohol consumed

How quickly the alcohol is consumed

How often the person consumes alcohol

The main factors that determine a person's blood alcohol content (BAC) are the person's body weight, how much alcohol is consumed, and how quickly the alcohol was consumed. It is always safest to not ride after consuming alcohol in any amount.

2. If you get a flat tire while riding, you should:

Hold the handle grips firmly and stay off the brakes.

Shift your weight toward the good wheel and brake normally.

Brake on the good wheel while immediately pulling off the road.

If a tire goes flat while you are riding, hold onto the handgrips firmly and concentrate on maintaining a straight course. Brake only if you are sure which tire is flat. Exit the roadway once your motorcycle has slowed considerably.

3. When making a U-turn:

The front and rear brakes need to be used at the same time.

Do not use the front brake because it could cause the bike to tip over.

Use the front brake to increase stability of the motorcycle.

The front brake should not be used when making a U-turn because it could cause the bike to tip over. Instead, use the rear brake to control the speed of the bike in the U-turn.

4. When riding behind a car, traveling in the left third of the lane allows the driver to see you in their side mirror. What is a downside to this?

Most people don’t use their side mirrors as often as they use their rearview mirror.

The wind may prevent the use of a side mirror.

Side mirrors should not be used by motorists.

Most drivers do not look at their side mirrors as often as they look at their rearview mirror. Therefore, when following a car, it is generally most advantageous to ride in the center portion of the lane where you are most likely to be visible in the driver's rearview mirror.

5. Which of the following is not recommended as protective apparel for motorcycle users?

Long pants

Gloves

A baseball cap

When riding a motorcycle, it is highly recommended that you wear protective apparel. Clothing that may help protect a motorcycle user in the case of a crash include long-sleeved jackets; long, heavy pants; over-the-ankle, closed-toe boots; and full-fingered leather gloves. It is a good idea to cover as much skin as possible when riding a motorcycle.

6. Your lane position should do all of the following, except:

Increase your ability to be seen.

Help you avoid surface hazards.

Invite other road users into your lane.

A properly chosen lane position should provide a number of benefits, including an increased ability to see others and to be seen. It should help you avoid wind blasts, other drivers' blind spots, and surface hazards. Your lane position should discourage other drivers from trying to share your lane and provide you with an escape route, should a hazard arise.
