1. When riding in a vehicle's blind spot, you should:

Stay where you are to avoid surprising the driver.

Wave at the other driver to get their attention.

Slow down until you are out of the blind spot.

Pull over to the shoulder.

If you find yourself riding in a vehicle's blind spot, you should either speed up quickly or slow down and drop back to vacate the spot.

2. Before changing lanes, you should:

Turn your head to check for vehicles in your blind spot.

Rely on your mirrors to show you all of your surroundings.

Point in the direction of the lane change.

Speed up to get ahead of other vehicles.

Motorcycles have blind spots, just like any other vehicle. You should always turn your head to check for traffic in your blind spot before changing lanes. Do not rely on your mirrors alone.

3. If a tire goes flat while you are riding and you must stop, you should:

Use both brakes and stop quickly.

Shift your weight toward the good tire.

Brake on the good tire and steer to the side of the road.

Relax on the handgrips.

If either of your tires go flat while you are riding, hold the handgrips firmly, ease off the throttle, and maintain a straight course. If you need to brake, gradually apply the brake to the tire that is not flat. As you slow down, edge to the side of the road, squeeze the clutch, and stop.

4. To stop quickly, you should:

Rely only on the front brake.

Rely only on the rear brake.

Use the front brake and then the rear brake.

Use both brakes at the same time.

If you need to stop quickly, you should apply both brakes at the same time.

5. The best way to handle tailgaters is to:

Change lanes and let them pass.

Use your horn and make obscene gestures.

Speed up to put distance between you and the tailgater.

Come to a complete stop.

If possible, change lanes and let a tailgater pass your vehicle. Speeding up may result in the driver continuing to tailgate you at a higher speed, thereby increasing the danger.

6. Which of the following provides a rider with the best protection?

Goggles

A face shield

A windshield

Eyeglasses

A plastic, shatter-resistant face shield provides protection for your entire face in the event of a crash. Goggles will protect your eyes, but not the rest of your face. A windshield or eyeglasses are not a substitute for either goggles or a face shield.

7. If taking a long trip, you should:

Try to minimize the number of rest breaks.

Use artificial stimulants, like caffeine, if you feel drowsy.

Dress warmly to avoid getting too cold during the ride.

Schedule more than 12 hours of riding a day.

To reduce the risk of fatigue on a long trip, dress to protect yourself from tiring elements, such as wind, cold, and rain. Limit yourself to no more than six hours of riding per day and take rest brakes at least every two hours. Avoid using artificial stimulants, as these only result in extreme fatigue when they wear off.
