1. If you are being chased by a dog, you should:

Kick it away.

Stop until the animal loses interest.

Swerve around the animal.

Approach the animal slowly, then speed up.

Motorcycles often seem to attract dogs. If you are being chased by a dog, downshift and approach it slowly. Then, as you approach the dog, accelerate and leave it behind.

2. If a friend has been drinking and wants to ride their motorcycle, you should:

Let them.

Encourage them to take less-crowded roads.

Push their bike over.

Encourage friends to talk them out of riding.

Never let someone ride if they have had too much to drink. Do whatever you can to prevent them from riding. It can be helpful to recruit a group of friends to intervene and apply peer pressure to the person.

3. Increase your following distance if:

The pavement is dry.

Riding conditions are normal.

The roadway is wet.

You can see through the vehicle in front of you.

Open up your following distance if your motorcycle will require a longer distance than normal to stop. Additionally, if you are riding in heavy traffic or if you cannot see through the vehicle in front of you, you should also increase your following distance.

4. The only way to rid your body of alcohol is through:

Time.

Drinking coffee.

Exercising.

Taking a cold shower.

The only way to remove the alcoholic content of a drink from your body is to allow your body time to eliminate it. There are no shortcuts to sobering up.

5. An approved helmet:

Allows the wearer to see as far to the sides as is necessary for safe riding.

Looks good.

Does not have a chin strap.

Protects the wearer's hearing.

While some people believe that a helmet will limit their vision, this is not the case. Any U.S. Department of Transportation-approved helmet will allow the wearer to see as far as is needed for safe riding.

6. When riding at night, a motorcyclist should maintain a minimum following distance of:

Two seconds.

Three seconds.

Four seconds.

Five seconds.

Because it is more difficult to see and judge distances in the dark than in daylight, you should maintain an expanded following distance of at least three seconds when riding at night. It may take you longer than usual to realize the vehicle in front of you has stopped and you may need additional time to slow or stop to avoid hitting the vehicle.
