19. 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.

Speed up.

Danger ahead.

Stop.

Merge.

Hand signals are an important part of communication when riding in groups. If a lead rider extends their left arm straight down with their palm facing back, the group of riders should come to a stop.

21. An experienced rider:

Changes positions within their lane as conditions change.

Stays in one portion of a lane at all times.

Weaves within the lane to be more visible.

Travels only on the oily portion of the lane.

Unlike drivers of larger vehicles, a motorcyclist has three lane position options in their travel lane. The rider should select whichever position is safest based on road and traffic conditions.

22. Making eye contact with another driver:

Indicates that the driver sees you.

Doesn’t mean that the driver will properly yield to you.

Guarantees that the other driver will properly yield to you.

May make the driver mad.

Never rely on eye contact as an assurance that a driver will properly yield to you. It is common for drivers to look directly at motorcyclists and still fail to notice them.

23. If you must brake and swerve to avoid a hazard, you should:

Either brake then swerve or swerve then brake.

Brake and swerve at the same time.

Choose to either brake or swerve.

Not swerve and only use the front brake to stop.

If a hazard requires you to brake and swerve to avoid a collision, you should take the actions separately. Do not brake while swerving because doing so may cause your motorcycle to fall over.

24. For the best protection, jackets and pants:

Should cover your arms and legs completely.

Should be loose and flap in the wind while you are riding.

Should only partially cover your arms and legs.

Should be made of wool.

To provide adequate protection when riding, jackets and pants should cover your arms and legs completely. Your clothing should fit snugly but be loose enough to let you move freely. Leather or newer kinds of synthetic materials provide the best protection in the case of an accident.

25. Which of the following types of footwear is best for a motorcycle operator?

Sturdy boots

Tennis shoes

Shoes with loose laces

Sandals

Sturdy boots or shoes that are high enough to support the ankles can provide the best protection for motorcyclists. Laced up boots are best, but high-top boots or heavy shoes are fine. If a motorcyclist wears shoes that have long laces, they should be sure to securely tuck the laces away before riding.
