A DOT-compliant helmet.

A leather jacket.

2. What can remove alcohol from a person's system?

Time

Coffee

Exercise

The only way to sober up after drinking is to give your body the time it needs to remove the alcohol. There are no techniques that will speed up this process.

3. The best way to stay out of trouble while riding a motorcycle is to:

Look well ahead of your motorcycle.

Avoid high-density traffic areas.

Ride at speeds faster than the speed limit.

To avoid running into dangerous situations while riding, you should consistently scan the road well ahead of your motorcycle. Watch the road ahead to identify and react to potential hazards before meeting them.

4. Which factor does not play a major role in affecting your blood alcohol content (BAC)?

Age

The amount of alcohol consumed

Body weight

5. When nearing a blind intersection, you should:

Speed up.

Assume that other drivers will properly yield the right-of-way.

Change your lane position to become more visible to other drivers.

When approaching a blind intersection, move into the lane position that makes you the most visible to surrounding drivers.

6. When crossing angled railroad tracks, it is usually best to:

Use the shoulder of the road to slow down before crossing the tracks.

Walk your motorcycle across the tracks.

Continue straight within your lane to cross the tracks.

In most cases, it is safest to ride straight within your lane to cross angled railroad or trolley tracks. Changing the angle of your path to cross tracks may send you into another lane, causing a collision with oncoming traffic.

7. If your rear wheel locks up while you are stopping on a surface with good traction, you should:

Keep the wheel locked until you have stopped completely.

Release the rear brake and only use the front brake.

Release the rear brake and then quickly re-apply the brake.
