19. A motorcyclist is usually most easily seen by other drivers when they are riding in which lane position?

The right

The center

The left

If traffic allows, the center lane position is usually the best position for a motorcyclist to take when following a car because the center position will place them in the driver's rearview mirror. A motorcyclist should always be prepared to change positions if traffic or conditions require it.

20. A pre-ride inspection:

Takes only minutes.

Takes about an hour.

Should only be done by a certified mechanic.

You should do a pre-ride inspection of your motorcycle before every ride. This will usually take only a few minutes.

21. Most motorcycle crashes occur:

In broad daylight.

At dusk.

At night.

Most motorcycle crashes happen in broad daylight. Wearing bright colors and reflective materials is always recommended when riding, even during the day.

22. When riding behind a car, traveling in the left third of the lane allows the driver to see you in their side mirror. What is a downside to this?

Most people don’t use their side mirrors as often as they use their rearview mirror.

The wind may prevent the use of a side mirror.

Side mirrors should not be used by motorists.

Most drivers do not look at their side mirrors as often as they look at their rearview mirror. Therefore, when following a car, it is generally most advantageous to ride in the center portion of the lane where you are most likely to be visible in the driver's rearview mirror.

23. A "wobble," or a sudden shaking of the front wheel and handle bars, can usually be traced to:

Incorrect tire pressure or uneven loading.

Improperly tightening the front wheel to the frame.

Hitting an object with the front tire.

A “wobble” is when the front wheel and handlebars suddenly start to shake from side to side. Most wobbles are a result of improper loading, unsuitable accessories, or incorrect tire pressure.

24. Which of the following is an example of a potentially slippery surface?

A gravel road

A paved driveway

Dry pavement

Traction may be poor on surfaces such as wet, snowy, icy, or muddy pavement; gravel roads; lane markings; and steel plates and utility hole covers.

25. There may be less traction available for braking when:

A motorcycle is leaning.

A motorcycle is straight up and down.

A motorcycle is on dry pavement.

Any time a motorcycle is leaning, such as in a turn or curve, there is less traction available for braking. Both brakes may still be used while a motorcycle is turning, but it must be done with great care.
