21. When braking:

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.

22. If you are riding in traffic when a small animal enters your lane, you should:

Do whatever you can, including swerving into other lanes, to avoid hitting the animal.

Switch lanes as quickly as possible.

Stay in your lane.

Flash your lights to try to scare the animal.

Do everything you safely can to avoid hitting an animal in the road. If you are in traffic, however, you should remain in your lane. Swerving into another lane of traffic to avoid hitting an animal can cause you to collide with another driver. Hitting something small is less dangerous than hitting something big.

23. How can you increase your ability to be seen at an intersection?

Try to make eye contact with other drivers.

Make sure you always ride using your headlight.

Wave your arms.

Ride closely to vehicles in front of you.

To maximize your ability to be seen at an intersection, ride with your headlight on and select a lane position that provides oncoming traffic with the best view of your motorcycle. Maintain a space cushion that allows you enough space to take evasive action if a hazard arises. You should never assume that making eye contact with a driver will be enough to make them consciously register your presence.

24. Several factors influence blood alcohol concentration (BAC). Which of the following does not play a role?

The amount of alcohol consumed

How fast a person drinks

Body weight

Height

There are several major factors that can affect a person's blood alcohol concentration (BAC). A BAC is determined in part by the amount of alcohol someone has consumed, how fast they consumed the alcohol, and their body weight.

25. If you find yourself riding alongside another vehicle, you should:

Speed up or slow down.

Wave at the other driver.

Stay alongside the vehicle until the next exit and then exit.

Let the other driver worry about it.

Riding directly next to another vehicle is dangerous because you could be riding in the vehicle's blind spot. Additionally, the vehicle may block your route of escape if another hazard arises. If you find yourself riding directly alongside another vehicle, either speed up or drop back.
