8. If carrying a load in a sidecar, the motorcycle's stopping distance:

May be increased.

May be decreased.

Is not a concern.

Will be similar to the stopping distance of a two-wheeled motorcycle.

Because adding a load to a motorcycle increases its weight, the vehicle's inertia may increase, causing its stopping distance to increase. Begin slowing and stopping earlier when riding a motorcycle with a load or passenger in its sidecar.

9. When being passed, do not move into the portion of the lane farthest from the passing vehicle because:

The passing vehicle may re-enter your lane too early.

You may prevent another vehicle from passing you.

The portion of the lane nearest the passing vehicle is better.

You are more likely to experience a wind blast from the passing vehicle on the far side of the lane.

When being passed, you should not ride on the side of your lane that is farthest from the passing vehicle. Doing so may tempt the driver to return to your lane before there is actually room for them to do so safely.

10. In general, riders should:

Pick one lane position and always use it.

Change lane positions frequently to prevent monotony.

Choose a lane position that maximizes their space cushion.

Never use the center lane position.

Because road and traffic conditions are always changing, the safest lane position is also always changing. Choose the position that will maximize your space cushion and allow other drivers to see you most easily.

11. When riding a motorcycle, a jacket should be worn:

No matter the weather conditions.

Only on cool days.

Only on warm days.

Only if the ride will be longer than half an hour.

For your protection, you should always wear a long-sleeved jacket when riding, even in warm weather when you may not think you need a jacket. It can help protect you against the sun and dehydration in hot weather.

12. When is it important for a rider to use their mirrors?

When slowing down or stopping suddenly

When stopped at an intersection

When changing lanes

All of the above.

It is particularly important for a rider to check their mirrors when slowing down or stopping, when stopped at an intersection, when changing lanes, and when turning.

13. Impairment from drinking alcohol occurs:

Well below the legal limit.

Once reaching the legal limit.

Just above the legal limit.

Well above the legal limit.

It is never safe to operate a motorcycle after consuming any amount of alcohol. Impairment of the skills needed to safely ride begins well below the legal limit.

14. The center portion of a lane usually contains an oily strip. This part of the lane is:

Never safe for motorcyclists.

Usually safe, unless the road is wet.

Usually safe, unless it is sunny outside.

Always safe, no matter the weather conditions.

Oily drippings from cars collect in a strip in the center of a traffic lane. Unless the road is wet, this area will generally still provide enough traction for motorcyclists to ride safely. Because the strip is usually no more than two feet wide, it is often possible to ride to one side of the strip and still be in the center portion of the lane.
