33. During your pre-ride inspection, you should check all of the following, except the:

Fluids.

Headlight and taillight.

Turn signals.

Reflectors.

Before setting off on any ride, you should do a thorough check of your motorcycle. Inspect the tires, oil and fluid levels, headlight, tail light, turn signals, brake light, clutch and throttle, mirrors, brakes, and horn.

34. Passengers should:

Lean with the operator.

Never come into contact with the operator.

Sit as far back on their seat as possible.

Hold onto their seat.

Before riding while carrying a passenger, you should instruct your passenger to lean with you through turns and curves. They should hold onto your waist, hips, or belt.

35. The primary source of information about your motorcycle should come from:

The motorcycle's former owner.

The owner’s manual.

A library book about motorcycles.

A motorcycle enthusiast.

The owner's manual should be your primary source of information about your specific type of motorcycle. Be sure to read the manual before operating your motorcycle for the first time.

36. Common drugs, such as cold tablets:

Can affect a rider's abilities to safely operate their motorcycle.

Usually won’t affect a rider's abilities to safely operate their motorcycle.

Pose no risk to a rider's operating abilities.

Are always acceptable to take before riding because they are sold over-the-counter.

Almost all drugs, including over-the-counter medications, have the potential to impact the abilities you need to ride safely. Make sure you understand the side effects of any drug before combining it with riding.

37. When you are riding on a bridge grating, you should:

Always ride on the far right side of the lane.

Always ride on the far left side of the lane.

Slowly zigzag across the grating.

Relax, maintain a steady speed, and ride straight across the surface.

Crossing rain grooves or bridge gratings may cause your motorcycle to move in a weaving motion. This is usually not dangerous, so simply relax and proceed across the surface at a steady speed. Trying to ride at an angle to compensate for the weave is dangerous because it forces you to zigzag to stay in your lane.

38. When riding in a group while passing another vehicle, it is best to:

Allow one rider to fully pass the other vehicle before another rider begins to pass.

Allow several members of the group to pass the other vehicle at once.

Have the last rider in the group wave to the driver being passed to signal that no other motorcycles are approaching.

Pass in a staggered formation.

Riders in a group should overtake another vehicle one at a time. Each rider should complete their pass and resume their position in the group formation before the next rider begins to pass.

39. It is important to flash your brake light when:

You are tired while riding.

You will be slowing where other drivers won't expect it.

There is a stop sign ahead.

Your signals are not working.

Motorcycle brake lights are more difficult to see than the brake lights of larger vehicles, so flashing your brake light may help other drivers to notice it. You should flash you brake light before slowing down where other drivers may not expect you to slow down, such as in the middle of a block or when approaching an alley.

40. Where is the greatest potential for conflict between motorcycle operators and other drivers?

At intersections

On highways

On rural roads

In parking lots

Intersections present the greatest potential for conflict between motorcyclists and other drivers. Riders should use extra caution when approaching and riding through intersections.
