6. When braking on a slippery surface, you should:

Use both the front and rear brakes.

Use abrupt pressure on the front brake to prevent locking the front tire.

Only use the rear brake.

Use either brake, but use only one brake.

When riding on slippery surfaces, you should use both brakes to slow down. Squeeze the brake lever gradually to avoid locking the front wheel and use gentle pressure on the rear brake.

7. Motorcycle riders:

Should wear hearing protection at all times to prevent hearing damage.

Should only wear hearing protection during long rides.

Should not wear hearing protection because it will muffle other noises, such as horns and sirens.

Do not need to use hearing protection if they are using a helmet.

Longterm exposure to wind and engine noise can cause permanent hearing damage, even if the rider is wearing a full-face helmet. Wearing ear plugs or other hearing protection can guard against damage while still allowing the wearer to hear important sounds like horns and sirens.

8. After drinking, what lessens the effects of alcohol?

Exercise

Coffee

Time

Food

The liver burns alcohol at a set rate, and there is nothing you can do to speed along the process. The only way to lessen the effects of alcohol is to give your body the time needed to remove it.

9. For routine braking:

You should only use the front brake.

You should only use the rear brake.

You should alternate between the front and rear brakes to maximize the life of the brakes.

You should always use both the front and rear brakes at the same time.

Always use both brakes every time that you slow or stop.

10. Riding directly alongside another vehicle:

Can place you in the driver's blind spot.

Is better than riding behind the other vehicle.

Is safe because it limits your escape routes.

Should only be done during the day.

Avoid riding directly alongside another vehicle, since this may place you in the vehicle's blind spot. If the driver can't see you, they may enter your lane without warning. Riding alongside a vehicle is also dangerous because the vehicle will block your route of escape if a hazard arises.
