7. When braking, you should use:

The front brake only.

The rear brake only.

Both front and rear brakes.

Either the front or rear brake, but not both.

You should always use both brakes every time you slow or stop.

8. When riding in a group, inexperienced riders should position themselves:

In the front of the group.

Just behind the leader.

Close to the back of the group.

At the tail end of the group.

In a group of motorcyclists, less experienced riders should be positioned toward the front, just behind the leader. This ensures that they will not have to chase after the rest of the group. This positioning also allows them to be watched from behind by more experienced riders.

9. It is a good idea to wear reflective clothing:

At night.

During the day.

At dusk.

All of the above.

Wearing reflective and brightly-colored clothing is always a good idea when riding a motorcycle. Crashes occur in broad daylight and at night, so it is best to wear highly visible clothing at any time of day.

10. When riding behind a car, you should ride:

In any part of the lane.

In the part of the lane closest to the shoulder.

In the part of the lane that places your image in the car's rearview mirror.

As close to the car as possible.

When following a car, you should ride in a position that allows the driver to see you in their rearview mirror. Usually, that means riding in the center portion of the lane. Because most drivers check their rearview mirrors much more often than they check their side mirrors, being in this lane position increases the chance that they will see you.

11. When riding downhill on a motorcycle with a sidecar:

Stopping will be easier than when riding without a sidecar.

Stopping will take longer than when riding without a sidecar.

You cannot stop.

Stopping is about as easy as it is when riding without the sidecar.

Riding with a sidecar increases the weight of a motorcycle and increases the braking force needed to stop the motorcycle. Slowing and stopping take longer when riding a vehicle downhill than when riding on a flat surface.

12. To increase your chances of being seen at an intersection, you should:

Turn your headlight off.

Ride with your headlight on.

Try to make eye contact with other drivers.

Ride as closely as possible to the vehicle ahead.

The single most important thing you can do to help others see you at an intersection is to ride with your headlight on. Your headlight should be on whenever your motorcycle is running.
