Number of Question 25

Passing Score 20

1. Motorcycle windshields:

Are a good substitute for a face shield.

Are a good substitute for goggles.

Will not protect your eyes from the wind.

Do not protect against items thrown from other vehicles.

A windshield is not an adequate substitute for either a face shield or goggles. Most windshields will not protect your eyes from the wind.

2. 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?

Two

Three

Four

Five

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.

3. Passing and being passed when riding a motorcycle is not much different than when driving a car. However:

A motorcycle's visibility is more critical than that of a car.

A motorcycle's visibility is not as important as that of a car.

Passing should be done on the shoulder instead of on the main roadway.

It is critical to make eye contact with the other driver when riding a motorcycle.

While the basic techniques for safely passing and being passed are the same as when driving a car, visibility is more critical when riding a motorcycle. The smaller size of a motorcycle makes it easier for you to disappear into another vehicle's blind spot, or for the driver to fail to notice you even if they are able to see you.

4. When riding downhill on a motorcycle with a sidecar:

Stopping will be easier than when riding without a sidecar.

Stopping will take longer than when riding without a sidecar.

You cannot stop.

Stopping is about as easy as it is when riding without the sidecar.

Riding with a sidecar increases the weight of a motorcycle and increases the braking force needed to stop the motorcycle. Slowing and stopping take longer when riding a vehicle downhill than when riding on a flat surface.

5. If you find yourself riding alongside another vehicle, you should:

Speed up or slow down.

Wave at the other driver.

Stay alongside the vehicle until the next exit and then exit.

Let the other driver worry about it.

Riding directly next to another vehicle is dangerous because you could be riding in the vehicle's blind spot. Additionally, the vehicle may block your route of escape if another hazard arises. If you find yourself riding directly alongside another vehicle, either speed up or drop back.

6. To get the best possible protection, wear a helmet that:

Fits snugly.

Is well-worn and broken in.

Is pretty loose.

Does not have a chinstrap.

Choose a helmet that meets U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) and state standards. It should fit you snugly all the way around and be free of obvious defects.
