1. 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.

2. Impairment from drinking alcohol occurs:

Well below the legal limit.

Once reaching the legal limit.

Just above the legal limit.

Well above the legal limit.

It is never safe to operate a motorcycle after consuming any amount of alcohol. Impairment of the skills needed to safely ride begins well below the legal limit.

3. When riding on a slippery surface, you should:

Increase your speed.

Make sudden moves.

Move to the edge of the road.

Ride in the tire tracks left by cars.

Strategies for safe riding on slippery surfaces include reducing your speed, avoiding sudden moves, staying away from the edge of the road, and riding in the tire tracks left by other cars.

4. When checking tire pressure:

Eyeballing the tire is a good method.

Use a tire gauge.

It is best to squeeze the tire.

Compare the height of the tire to another tire.

You should use a tire gauge to check the tire pressure before every ride. An under-inflated tire may still look okay, so a visual check is not enough.

5. Why should a load be placed low on a motorcycle?

If a load is too high, it raises the center of gravity.

If a load is too high, it may interfere with the turn signals.

It may be difficult to see over a load that is placed too high.

Others can't see your load if it is low.

Placing a load too high on a motorcycle will raise the motorcycle's center of gravity and risk upsetting its balance.

6. When being passed from behind, you should:

Try to move onto the shoulder.

Use the left portion of your lane.

Use the center portion of your lane.

Use the right portion of your lane.

When being passed, the center portion of the lane is generally the safest lane position for a motorcyclist. Riding on the side nearest the passing vehicle increases the risk of colliding with it. Riding on the side farthest from the passing vehicle can also be dangerous because it may prompt the driver to return to your lane before it is safe to do so.
