7. Signals on a motorcycle:

Serve little purpose since motorcycles are smaller than most other vehicles.

Are very important to alert other motorists to a rider's intentions.

Should not be used if no vehicles are close to the motorcycle.

Are more complicated than those on a car.

You are especially vulnerable as a motorcyclist, so it is very important to use your turn signals to alert others to your intentions. Always use them any time that you plan to change lanes or turn, even if you don't think anyone else is nearby.

8. You can increase your visibility by:

Adding auxiliary lights to your motorcycle.

Not using your turn signal.

Wearing dark clothing.

Waving at people.

To increase your visibility, you can wear clothing that is brightly-colored or that contains reflective materials. Adding auxiliary lights to your motorcycle, using your turn signals, and flashing your brake light when appropriate are also good ways to get the attention of other road users.

9. When entering a turn, a rider should:

Speed up.

Reduce their speed.

Move their shoulders to match the angle of the turn.

Sit up as high as possible.

Before entering a turn, a motorcyclist should reduce their speed by closing the throttle and, if necessary, applying both brakes.

10. If attempting to brake in a curve, you should:

Brake more gradually than you would on a straightaway.

Brake as hard as you would on a straightaway.

Wait until you are not in the curve to brake.

Only use the rear brake.

Because tires have less traction when a motorcycle is leaning than when it is upright, always try to position your motorcycle in an upright position before braking. If you must brake while in a curve, apply the brakes more smoothly and gradually than if your motorcycle was traveling on a straightaway.

11. Generally, the body eliminates one alcoholic drink per hour. If a person consumed eight alcoholic drinks four hours ago, how many drinks likely remain in their body?

One drink

Two drinks

Three drinks

Four drinks

The minimum number of drinks left in a person's system can be estimated by subtracting the number of hours since the last drink from the total number of drinks consumed. In this case, the alcohol content of about four drinks would remain.

12. When riding at night, you should do all of the following, except:

Reduce your speed.

Increase your following distance.

Decrease your following distance.

Use your high beam light, if possible.

To reduce the risk of a collision when riding at night, be sure to reduce your speed and increase your following distance. Use the headlights of vehicles ahead of you to see farther down the road. Use your high beam headlight, except when following or meeting another vehicle.
