11. When riding, a cushion of space is helpful to:

Give you space to react to hazards.

Hide you from other drivers.

Prevent you from avoiding hazards.

Allow you to look at road signs.

Allowing a cushion of space around your motorcycle at all times will help ensure that you will have time to react if another driver makes a mistake. You will need the space to maneuver safely.

12. When carrying a passenger on a motorcycle, you must:

Have a seat that is large enough for two riders.

Only have one set of footrests.

Not encourage the passenger to wear protective clothing.

Put a sticker on the brake light to warn other motorists that a passenger is on the motorcycle.

You should not carry a passenger unless your motorcycle has a seat that is large enough for two riders. The motorcycle should be equipped with footrests for the passenger. Your passenger should wear the same kind of protective gear that is recommended to operators.

13. Goggles will:

Protect only your eyes.

Be an equally as effective as a face shield.

Offer the same protection as a windshield.

Provide protection for your entire face.

Wearing goggles provides protection for your eyes, but not for the rest of your face. A face shield provides protection for your whole face and is recommended above goggles. A windshield is not an adequate substitute for a face shield or goggles.

14. Waiting for one hour to ride after having one drink:

Guarantees that you cannot be arrested for drinking and riding.

Guarantees that your riding skills will not be affected.

Should be fine as long as you ride slowly.

May not entirely remove the effects of alcohol from your body.

On average, a person's body can eliminate the alcohol content of about one drink per hour. The amount of time required to lower a person's blood alcohol content (BAC) can vary, so it is safest not to operate a motor vehicle after consuming any amount of alcohol.

15. When stopped behind another vehicle, you should:

Get as close as possible to the vehicle.

Maintain a space cushion between your motorcycle and the other vehicle.

Not use your rearview mirrors to monitor traffic behind you.

Look for opportunities to squeeze through the stopped traffic.

You should stay well behind the vehicle in front of you, even when you are both stopped. This will give you room to escape if the vehicle backs up unexpectedly or if another vehicle approaches too quickly from behind.
