22. 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.

23. If hazards are on your left, you should ride:

In the left portion of the lane.

In the right portion of the lane.

In any portion of the lane.

On the shoulder.

When hazards exist to your left, it is often best to ride in the right portion of the lane. Be prepared to adjust your lane position as road and traffic conditions change.

24. Which formation is best for a group of riders entering a curve?

Pyramid

Staggered

Single-file

Compressed

A staggered formation is generally the best way for a group to maintain close ranks while also allowing each rider to maintain an adequate cushion of space. A single-file formation is preferable when taking curves, turning, or entering or exiting a highway.

25. It is recommended that a motorcyclist:

Shift gears in a turn.

Shift gears before a turn.

Change power suddenly in a turn.

Ride the brake throughout the turn.

It is recommended that you change gears prior to entering a turn.

26. When you have mounted your motorcycle, you should do all of the following, except:

Make sure the mirrors are clean.

Make sure the horn works.

Close the fuel supply valve.

Make sure the clutch works smoothly.

After mounting your motorcycle, you should make sure the clutch, throttle, horn, and brakes all work properly. Clean and adjust the mirrors and make sure that the fuel supply valve is open.

27. In which of the following situations should you increase your following distance?

Traffic is light.

Traffic is heavy.

You are able to see the roadway through vehicles in front of you.

There is pleasant and clear weather.

While a two-second following distance is generally adequate, you should increase your following distance any time conditions would require a longer stopping distance, such as when the pavement is slippery due to poor weather conditions. Additionally, you should increase your following distance at night, if you cannot see through the vehicle ahead, and when traffic is heavy.

28. An adequate cushion of space between your motorcycle and other vehicles:

Allows you time to react if another driver makes a mistake.

Keeps you in a single area of the lane, limiting your movement.

Allows you to rely on others to identify hazards.

Requires you go faster to stay with traffic.

Maintaining a cushion of space on all sides of your motorcycle helps to ensure that you have time and space to react if another road user makes a mistake.

29. Which of the following is not a factor in determining blood alcohol content (BAC)?

The amount of alcohol consumed

How fast the alcohol is consumed

The drinker's body weight

How often the drinker consumes alcohol

The three major factors that affect a person's blood alcohol content (BAC) are the amount of alcohol consumed, how fast the alcohol was consumed, and the drinker's body weight. It is illegal and dangerous to operate a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol.

30. Your lane position should:

Protect your lane from other drivers.

Allow you a nice view of scenery.

Place you in other drivers’ blind spots.

Hide your intentions from other drivers.

A properly chosen lane position can optimize a number of safety factors. Your lane position should keep you out of other vehicles’ blind spots, increase your ability to see and be seen, help you avoid surface hazards, help you avoid wind blasts from other vehicles, and provide you with an escape route from any hazards that might arise. You should be positioned in a way that discourages other drivers from trying to share your lane.
