1. A major effect of alcohol consumption is:

Alcohol is a depressant. It slows down and impairs bodily functions, both physical and mental.

2. Rain suits:

Should not be used.

Should not balloon when riding.

Are not needed since motorcycles shouldn't be operated in the rain.

Should tear easily.

High-quality rain suits designed for motorcycle riding will resist tearing and ballooning when a rider travels at high speeds.

3. A DOT-approved helmet:

Restricts the wearer's vision to the sides.

Can greatly reduce the severity of a head injury.

Is usually uncomfortable.

Makes it more difficult for the wearer to control their motorcycle.

Wearing a helmet while riding greatly improves your chances of avoiding serious injury to your head or neck in the case of a crash. A DOT-approved helmet will not restrict your vision to the sides.

4. To stop quickly, you should:

Rely only on the front brake.

Rely only on the rear brake.

Use the front brake and then the rear brake.

Use both brakes at the same time.

If you need to stop quickly, you should apply both brakes at the same time.

Use only one brake if it is a non-emergency situation.

Only use both brakes if you are riding on wet pavement.

Use both brakes regardless of the circumstances.

Use only the front brake.

You should use both brakes every time you slow or stop.

6. The front brake supplies how much of a motorcycle's stopping power?

About one-quarter

About one-half

About three-quarters

All the stopping power

The front brake of a motorcycle is more powerful than the rear brake. It can provide three-fourths of the bike's total stopping power.

7. Can clothing help prevent injuries in the event of a crash?

No, clothing is not really for protection.

No, clothing is more of a personal choice.

Yes, but only if garments are very loose and flap in the wind.

Yes, if pants and a jacket cover your arms and legs completely.

Appropriate clothing can reduce the risk of injury in a crash. Choose a jacket and pants that cover your arms and legs, are made of sturdy material, and are snug enough that they do not flap in the wind.

8. Riding at night is usually:

Easier than riding during the day because you can more easily see the lights of other vehicles.

More difficult than riding during the day because it is harder to see.

Not allowed on highways.

Less distracting than riding during the day.

Riding safely at night is challenging because it is harder to see and be seen than it is during the day. The absence of normal shadows and light contrasts makes it harder to judge distances.
