15. Which of the following does not offer protection to a motorcycle rider?
Explanation
To protect yourself against injury, you should wear a DOT-compliant helmet; face or eye protection; a jacket and long pants made of sturdy material; boots or shoes that are high and sturdy enough to cover and support your ankles; and gloves made of durable material.
16. When is it important for a rider to use their mirrors?
Explanation
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.
17. Slippery surfaces can make it difficult to control a motorcycle. Which of the following would be considered a slippery surface?
Explanation
Wet pavement; roads covered in loose gravel or sand; muddy, snowy, or icy areas; painted lane markings; and metal covers and plates in the road can be slippery surfaces. Motorcyclists should ride with extra caution when riding over slippery surfaces.
18. An approved helmet:
Explanation
While some people believe that a helmet will limit their vision, this is not the case. Any U.S. Department of Transportation-approved helmet will allow the wearer to see as far as is needed for safe riding.
19. Reflective material on your helmet:
Explanation
Reflective material on a vest or on the sides of your helmet can make you more visible to other drivers and should be used both day and night.
20. For the best protection, jackets and pants:
Explanation
To provide adequate protection when riding, jackets and pants should cover your arms and legs completely. Your clothing should fit snugly but be loose enough to let you move freely. Leather or newer kinds of synthetic materials provide the best protection in the case of an accident.
21. 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.
