1. If your motorcycle starts to wobble, you should:

Accelerate out of the wobble.

Use the brakes immediately.

Grip the handlebars firmly and gradually close the throttle.

Downshift.

Do not try to accelerate out of a wobble because doing so will only make the motorcycle more unstable. Instead, grip the handlebars firmly, slow down by gradually closing the throttle, move your weight as far forward and downward as possible, and pull off the road as soon as you can. Avoid applying the brakes, as this may also worsen the wobble.

2. In Illinois, motorcycle safety helmets are:

Not required.

Required to be worn by the operator.

Required to be worn by a passenger.

Required to be worn by both the operator and passenger.

The use of motorcycle safety helmets is not required under Illinois law. However, wearing a properly-fitted helmet while riding a motorcycle is highly recommended.

3. Someone convicted of driving under the influence (DUI) of alcohol or drugs may receive any of the following sentences, except:

License suspension.

Installation of a breath-alcohol device required to start their vehicle.

A fine.

A warning.

Potential penalties for a DUI conviction in Illinois include suspension/revocation of your license, required installation of a breath-alcohol device on your vehicle, severe fines, and community service.

4. When braking, you should use:

Only the front brake.

Only the rear brake.

Both brakes.

Either brake, but never both at the same time.

Always simultaneously use both brakes to stop. The brakes are most effective when used at the same time.

5. To be seen in the rearview mirror of the driver ahead of you, you should:

Ride in the center portion of the lane.

Ride in the left portion of the lane.

Ride in the right portion of the lane.

Ride in a weaving pattern.

If you are following a car, the driver is most likely to notice you if you position yourself behind them in the center of your lane. This lane position places you in the driver's rearview mirror. Most drivers check their rearview mirrors much more frequently than they check their side mirrors.
