1. When making a non-emergency stop on a motorcycle:

Only the front brake should be used.

The front and rear brakes should be applied at the same time.

Only the rear brake should be used.

When making a normal, non-emergency stop, use the front and rear brakes simultaneously and downshift.

2. The faster you drink alcohol:

The faster the alcohol is removed from your body.

The faster the alcohol accumulates in your body.

The less the alcohol affects your body.

The faster you drink, the faster the alcohol will accumulate in your body. Alcohol leaves a person's system at an average of one drink per hour. If you consume more than one drink in an hour, you will still have alcohol in your body after one hour has passed.

3. If you must brake and swerve to avoid danger, you should:

Use only the front brake while swerving.

Brake and swerve at the same time.

Either brake then swerve or swerve then brake.

If a hazard requires you to brake and swerve, you should take these actions separately. Never brake while swerving because doing so can cause your motorcycle to fall over.

4. When riding over scored pavement in a work zone, you should:

Look downward to see the changes in the road surface.

Keep your head and eyes up.

Stay to the left side of the lane.

When riding over scored pavement in a work zone, keep your head and eyes up. Ride slowly, keep a steady throttle, and don't try to fight the handlebars.

5. Smaller vehicles appear to be ________ and slower than they really are.

Closer

Farther away

Larger

It can be difficult to judge the speed and distance of a small vehicle, such as a motorcycle. Do not assume that drivers of larger vehicles will be able to accurately understand your speed and location.

6. When riding a motorcycle, it is important to:

Focus only on what is in front of you.

Focus only on what is behind you.

Know what’s happening both in front of and behind you.

While it is most important to be aware of what is ahead of you on the road, you cannot ignore what is behind you. You can keep track of the situation behind you by checking your mirrors consistently.

7. Before starting out, you should make sure the fuel valve is:

Open.

Closed.

Covered.

Before setting out on a ride, you should make sure that your motorcycle's fuel supply valve is open. If the fuel valve is closed, the engine may still start with the fuel that is remaining in the lines from a previous ride, but it will stall once the lines are empty.
