19. 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.

20. When stopped behind another vehicle, you should:

Get as close as possible to the vehicle.

Maintain a space cushion between your motorcycle and the other vehicle.

Not use your rearview mirrors to monitor traffic behind you.

Look for opportunities to squeeze through the stopped traffic.

You should stay well behind the vehicle in front of you, even when you are both stopped. This will give you room to escape if the vehicle backs up unexpectedly or if another vehicle approaches too quickly from behind.

21. You’ll have a better chance of avoiding serious injury if you wear all of the following, except:

A DOT-approved helmet.

Face or eye protection.

Ear buds.

Protective clothing.

To protect yourself against injury, you should wear a DOT-compliant helmet; face or eye protection; a jacket and long pants made of sturdy material; boots or shoes that are high and sturdy enough to cover and support your ankles; and gloves made of durable material.

22. As weight transfers to the front of your bike while you are braking, you should:

Gradually increase pressure to the front brake.

Use more rear brake pressure.

Not worry. The weight transfer will not have an effect on your motorcycle.

Try to lock the front tire.

While you are braking, gradually increase the amount of pressure applied to the front brake lever as the weight of the bike is transferred forward to the front tire.

23. More than half of all crashes:

Involve riders who have operated their motorcycles for less than six months.

Are caused by faulty ignition systems.

Occur because of distractions caused by passengers.

Happen at night.

Always be very careful when riding a motorcycle that is new to you. In most motorcycle crashes, the operator had less than six months of experience on the bike that they were riding.

24. Which of the following is true?

The front and rear brakes provide equal braking power.

The front brake provides more braking power than the rear brake.

The rear brake provides more braking power than the front brake.

Only the front brake should be used when braking.

The front brake of a motorcycle is more powerful than the rear one, providing at least 70 percent of the total stopping power. Always use both brakes any time you slow or stop.

25. Your lane position should:

Avoid other road users' blind spots.

Provide a good view of the shoulder.

Provide a poor view of road hazards.

Invite others to share your lane.

A properly chosen lane position should help you to see others and be seen by them. Avoid riding in another driver's blind spot for a long period of time.
