22. If a driver is following you too closely, you should:

Flash your brake light before you slow to warn the other driver.

Accelerate.

Pull over to the side of the road.

Slow down.

If someone is following you too closely, it is a good idea to flash your brake light before slowing down. A tailgater may be concentrating on you and not see upcoming hazards that require traffic to slow down.

23. To get the best protection, be sure that your helmet:

Meets Department of Transportation guidelines.

Looks sturdy.

Is inexpensive.

Is in your favorite color.

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.

24. Use a turn signal:

When you’re planning to increase your speed.

Only when there is a lot of traffic.

Any time you plan on changing lanes.

Only if it is dark outside.

You should use a turn signal every time you plan to turn or change lanes, even if you think no one else is around to see it.

25. Without a helmet, a motorcycle rider is ________ more likely to suffer a critical head injury in a crash.

Three times

Four times

Five times

Six times

Without a helmet, a rider is five times more likely to sustain a critical head injury in a crash.

26. After drinking, what lessens the effects of alcohol?

Exercise

Coffee

Time

Food

The liver burns alcohol at a set rate, and there is nothing you can do to speed along the process. The only way to lessen the effects of alcohol is to give your body the time needed to remove it.

27. It is important to flash your brake light when:

You are tired while riding.

You will be slowing where other drivers won't expect it.

There is a stop sign ahead.

Your signals are not working.

Motorcycle brake lights are more difficult to see than the brake lights of larger vehicles, so flashing your brake light may help other drivers to notice it. You should flash you brake light before slowing down where other drivers may not expect you to slow down, such as in the middle of a block or when approaching an alley.

28. Your lane position should not:

Increase your ability to see and be seen.

Help you avoid surface hazards.

Provide you with an escape route.

Welcome other drivers into your lane.

A properly chosen lane position can optimize a number of safety factors. Your lane position should keep you out of other vehicles’ blind spots, increase your ability to see and be seen, help you avoid surface hazards, help you avoid wind blasts from other vehicles, and provide you with an escape route from any hazards that might arise. You should be positioned in a way that discourages other drivers from trying to share your lane.
