15. A plastic, shatter-resistant face shield:

Is not necessary if you have a windshield.

Only protects your eyes.

Helps protect your whole face.

Does not protect your face as well as goggles.

A plastic, shatter-resistant face shield can help protect your whole face in a crash. While goggles can protect your eyes, they won't protect the rest of your face. A windshield is not a substitute for a face shield or goggles.

16. If you are transporting a passenger, they should:

Lean as you lean.

Hold onto the seat.

Sit as far back on the seat as possible.

Never hold onto you.

Passengers should lean as the operator leans. A passenger should sit as far forward as they can without crowding the operator and hold firmly onto the operator's waist, hips, or belt.

17. When it is raining, it is usually best to:

Ride in the center of the lane.

Pull off to the side of the road until the rain stops.

Ride in the tire tracks left by cars.

Increase your speed.

Wet pavement is especially slippery when it first begins to rain. Deposits of oil left by cars will not yet have washed off the roadway. If it is raining, it is safest to ride in the tire tracks left by cars. The left tire track will often be your best choice, although this may vary.

18. If the roadway is slippery, you should:

Increase your following distance.

Decrease your following distance.

Ride on the shoulder.

Ride with your lights flashing.

An expanded cushion of space is needed if your motorcycle will take longer than normal to stop. If the pavement is slippery, if you cannot see through the vehicle ahead of you, or if traffic is heavy and another driver may try to squeeze in front of you, open up to a minimum three-second following distance.

19. Intersections are usually:

Safe since there is so much traffic there.

A dangerous spot for riders.

Difficult to figure out.

Safer than the open road.

Intersections can be dangerous because they present the greatest degree of potential conflict between motorcyclists and other drivers.

20. If a tire goes flat and you must brake, you should:

Apply the brake of the tire that is not flat.

Apply the brake of the tire that is flat.

Apply both brakes.

Not use either brake.

If either of your tires go flat and you must brake, gradually apply the brake of the tire that is not flat (if you are certain of which tire that is).

21. When riding a motorcycle, you should:

Not wear a jacket if it's warm out.

Always wear a jacket, even if it’s warm out.

Wear shorts in warm weather.

Not be concerned about long shoelaces.

For your protection, you should always wear a long-sleeved jacket made of appropriate material when riding. This is true even in warm weather because wearing a jacket is important to help prevent dehydration. You should also always wear long pants, and tuck in the laces of your footwear to prevent them from catching on the motorcycle.
