8. When being passed from behind, you should:

Stay in the center portion of the lane.

Stay in the right portion of the lane.

Move onto the shoulder.

Activate your turn signal.

When you are being passed from behind or by an oncoming vehicle, stay in the center portion of your lane. Riding any closer to the passing vehicle can put you in danger.

9. Maximum straight-line braking is done by:

Using the front brake, then the rear brake.

Using the rear brake, then the front brake.

Using the front and rear brakes at the same time without locking either wheel.

Using the front and rear brakes at the same time while locking the rear wheel.

Maximum straight-line braking is accomplished by simultaneously applying both the front and rear brakes without locking either wheel.

10. During acceleration, a sidecar attached to a motorcycle will:

Feel like it is lagging behind.

Feel like it is accelerating faster than the motorcycle.

Vibrate uncontrollably.

Make acceleration seem faster.

A sidecar is essentially an unpowered mass attached to the side of your motorcycle. Due to its inertia, it will feel like it is lagging behind when you accelerate.

11. Usually, a good way to handle tailgaters is to:

Change lanes and let them pass.

Come to a complete stop.

Speed up to put distance between you and the tailgater.

Ignore them.

The best way to handle a tailgater is to get them in front of you. If you can do so safely, change lanes and let them pass. Speeding up may only increase the danger by causing them to continue tailgating you at a higher speed.

12. Before every ride, it is important to check all of the following, except:

The spokes.

The tire tread.

The lights.

The seat fabric.

Before every ride, you should complete a thorough check of your motorcycle. Be sure to check the rims and spokes to make sure none are bent, loose, or damaged; the condition and tread of the tires; and all of the lights.

13. To be effective, an eye or face shield must:

Fasten securely.

Prevent air from passing through.

Not allow for eyeglasses to fit underneath.

Restrict your vision to the sides.

To be effective, an eye or face shield must be free of scratches; be resistant to penetration; allow clear views to both sides; fasten securely; permit air to pass through to prevent fogging; and allow room for eyeglasses or sunglasses, if needed.

14. Waiting for one hour to ride after having one drink:

Guarantees that you cannot be arrested for drinking and riding.

Guarantees that your riding skills will not be affected.

Should be fine as long as you ride slowly.

May not entirely remove the effects of alcohol from your body.

On average, a person's body can eliminate the alcohol content of about one drink per hour. The amount of time required to lower a person's blood alcohol content (BAC) can vary, so it is safest not to operate a motor vehicle after consuming any amount of alcohol.
