36. Riding gloves should:

Not be worn because they will make your hands too hot.

Be worn to provide a better grip on the handgrips.

Not be worn because they will make it more difficult to work the controls.

Be worn only on cooler days.

Gloves made of leather, or another durable material, should be worn when riding. They will provide you with an improved grip on the handgrips, as well as help protect your hands in the event of a crash.

37. If the road is wet, you should avoid:

The left portion of a lane.

The center portion of the lane.

The right portion of the lane.

All areas of the lane.

Oily drippings from cars and trucks collect in a strip in the center portion of a lane. This strip usually still provides enough traction for motorcyclists to operate safely, except when the road is wet. The strip is usually narrow enough that you can ride to its side and still be in the center portion of the lane.

38. When riding over rough surfaces, you should:

Hold the handgrips loosely to allow for movement.

Hold the handgrips firmly to maintain control.

Use lots of throttle to help you get over the rough surface.

Ride without a helmet as the helmet could become loose and cover your face.

When riding over a rough surface, hold onto the handgrips firmly to ensure that you will maintain directional control over your motorcycle.

39. Head and neck injuries can be reduced by:

Wearing a helmet.

Wearing a leather jacket.

Using the rear brake only.

Wearing goggles.

The risk of head and neck injuries is greatly reduced by wearing a high-quality helmet. A helmet is a rider's best defense against injury in the case of an accident.

40. If operating a three-wheeled motorcycle or riding with a sidecar, do not ride too far to the right of your lane because:

Other drivers may not see you.

You will not be able to pass other vehicles as easily.

Other drivers may try to share your lane.

You may run off the road.

Because a sidecar sits on the right side of a motorcycle, riding too far to the right side of your lane risks the sidecar running off the road. Similarly, on a three-wheeled motorcycle, the rear right wheel may leave the road if you get too close to the right edge.

41. Use special care to use your mirrors in all of the following situations, except:

Before you slow down.

Before you change lanes.

When you are stopped.

After you get off the motorcycle.

You should make a special point of checking your mirrors when you are stopped at an intersection, before changing lanes, and before slowing down. It is important to regularly check your mirrors.

42. To stop quickly, it is best to:

Throttle down and use the front brake.

Use the rear brake only.

Use the front brake only.

Use both brakes at the same time.

To stop quickly, apply both brakes at the same time.
