2. For routine braking:

You should only use the front brake.

You should only use the rear brake.

You should alternate between the front and rear brakes to maximize the life of the brakes.

You should always use both the front and rear brakes at the same time.

Always use both brakes every time that you slow or stop.

3. 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.

4. How far in advance of a turn should you activate your turn signal?

10 feet

25 feet

50 feet

100 feet

Be sure to use the proper arm or mechanical signal when stopping, turning, or changing lanes. You are required to activate your turn signal at least 100 feet before beginning a turn.

5. Before carrying a passenger in traffic for the first time, you should:

Read books about carrying passengers.

Practice riding on an empty road.

Flash your lights so others can see you.
