1. To effectively provide protection for a motorcycle rider, pants should:

Be made of a soft material.

Be made of a heavy material.

Fit loosely enough that they flap in the wind.

Be short and expose some parts of the legs.

For your protection, you should wear pants that cover your entire legs and are made of leather or another sturdy synthetic material. Clothing should fit snugly enough that it does not flap in the wind but not so snugly that it restricts your movement.

2. When changing lanes, riders should:

Rely only on their mirrors to identify other vehicles.

Turn their head to look for traffic behind them.

Not worry about other traffic.

Slam on the brakes to allow any vehicles in their blind spot to pass.

A motorcycle has blind spots just like any other vehicle. A rider must always turn their head to check for traffic before changing lanes.

3. When stopping:

The rear brake should be applied first.

The front brake should be applied first.

Both brakes should be applied at the same time.

Only one brake, front or rear, should be used.

You should use both brakes every time you slow down or stop. Always apply the brakes simultaneously.

4. Where is the throttle usually located?

Near the left footrest

Near the right footrest

On the left handle grip

On the right handle grip

The throttle of a motorcycle is usually located on the right handle grip. Be sure to know where all of your motorcycle's controls are located before riding.

5. When riding in a group, the best way to keep ranks close while maintaining an adequate safety cushion is to ride:

In pairs.

In a staggered formation.

In a single-file line.

In a passing formation.

A staggered formation is the best way to keep ranks close while still maintaining an adequate space cushion for all riders. Ride in a single-file line when riding in curves, turning, or entering or leaving a highway. Never ride side-by-side with another rider.

6. 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.
