1. When riding with a passenger, you should do all of the following, except:

Ride a little more slowly than usual.

Begin to decelerate earlier than usual when slowing or stopping.

Wait to merge into gaps in traffic that are larger than what you would usually need.

Accelerate faster than usual.

The added weight of a passenger will affect the handling of your motorcycle. Expect your motorcycle to accelerate more slowly than usual, turn more slowly than usual, and require extra space to come to a complete stop.

2. When downshifting, you should:

Shift through multiple gears at a time.

Shift through one gear at a time.

Always shift all the way down to neutral first.

Accelerate.

When shifting into a lower gear, shift down one gear at a time and ease out the clutch through the friction zone between each downshift.

3. When planning a long group ride, which of the following ideas should not be implemented?

The lengths of travel segments should be based on the least experienced rider.

Breaks should be minimized so the riders can get to their destination as soon as possible.

Inexperienced riders should be placed behind the leaders.

The group should maintain a staggered riding formation.

When riding in a group, the length of a route and the lengths of segments of travel should be based on the skill level of the least experienced rider. Groups of riders should take regular breaks to reduce fatigue. Inexperienced riders should be placed behind the leader so more experienced riders can keep an eye on them from behind. It is generally best to ride in a staggered formation.

4. Approved helmets:

Can limit the view of the motorcycle operator.

Allow the motorcycle operator to see as far to the sides as necessary.

Are dangerous to wear.

Do not have to be worn if the motorcycle operator thinks their view would be limited.

While some people worry that wearing a helmet may dangerously limit their field of vision, this is not the case. Any approved helmet will let the operator see as far to the sides as is needed for safe riding.

5. Riding alongside another rider:

Allows you to maximize the surface of the road.

Should be avoided because it limits your escape routes.

Allows you to communicate with one another.

Makes it easier for other motorists to pass.

You should not ride alongside another motorcyclist because doing so will limit both of your possible routes of escape if you encounter a hazard.

6. Which of the following types of clothing can help you to be seen by other drivers?

Darkly-colored clothes

Clothes made from synthetic materials

Reflective clothes

A leather jacket

Be sure to wear gear that can help you and your motorcycle to be spotted by other road users. Bright, reflective clothing can make it easier for others to see you.
