26. If you are riding when it starts to rain, it is a good idea to:

Ride down the center of the lane.

Increase your speed.

Ride in the tire tracks left by cars.

Pull onto the shoulder of the road.

Because of the presence of oil deposits, the center strip of a lane can be hazardous when wet. When rain starts to fall, it is best to ride in the tire tracks left by cars. It is advisable to reduce your speed on wet surfaces.

27. When carrying a passenger in a sidecar, you should:

Begin slowing sooner than usual.

Begin slowing later than usual.

Apply the brakes more firmly than usual to stop quickly.

The added weight of a passenger in a sidecar will affect the handling of your motorcycle. Expect your motorcycle to require extra space to come to a complete stop.

Passing another vehicle.

You will be slowing down suddenly.

There is a stop sign ahead.

Your signals do not work.

A motorcycle's single brake light is not as noticeable as the two larger brake lights of a car or truck. It can be a good idea to flash your brake light to help others notice it, especially when you need to slow down more quickly than surrounding drivers may expect.

29. Which of the following will best protect your eyes from wind?

A windshield

Have a few cracks.

Not be certified.

Have frayed straps.

31. If in a no passing zone:

A motorcycle may still pass another vehicle.

A motorcycle may pass another vehicle if the pass can be completed before another vehicle approaches.

A motorcycle may pass on the shoulder.

Passing is prohibited in no passing zones. It is also prohibited to pass by riding off of the main-traveled portion of a roadway.

32. If using a sidecar to transport a load, you should:

Allow the load to move freely.

Secure the load so its weight does not shift.

Place the load unsecured in the seat.

Secure the load near the front of the sidecar.

Loads carried in a sidecar should be secured so that they do not shift and affect the motorcycle's handling. Loads should be distributed toward the rear of the sidecar to reduce tipping of the nose of the sidecar in the event of a sudden left turn.
