19. When riding behind a car, you should:

Ride in a position that will allow the other driver to see you in their rearview mirror.

Assume the driver sees you.

Ride in the far left portion of the lane.

Ride in the far right portion of the lane.

When riding behind a car, you should position yourself so you can be seen in the other driver's rearview mirror. Riding in the center portion of the lane will generally ensure that you will appear in the middle of their rearview mirror, where the driver is most likely to notice you.

20. 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.

21. Before mounting the motorcycle, your pre-ride inspection should include all of the following, except:

A tire check.

A taillight test.

A headlight test.

A paint check.

A pre-ride inspection should include checks of the tires, oil and fluids, lights, signals, clutch, throttle, mirrors, brakes, and horn. Conduct a thorough pre-ride inspection before every ride.

22. What can help reduce the risk of a head or neck injury in the event of a crash?

Riding on the shoulder

Riding under the speed limit

Wearing a helmet

Not allowing a passenger on the motorcycle

Wearing a helmet is the single most effective thing you can do to reduce the risk of head or neck injuries in the event of a crash.

23. Which of the following will protect your eyes from the wind?

Goggles

Windshield

Sunglasses

Eyeglasses

Goggles and face shields can protect a rider's eyes from the wind. Windshields, eyeglasses, and sunglasses generally do not shield a rider's eyes adequately enough.

24. 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.

25. If you are approaching a school bus that is stopped with its red lights flashing:

You must come to a full stop.

You must proceed with caution.

You do not need to slow down.

You should park your motorcycle.

If you approach a school bus that is stopped with its red lights flashing, you must come to a full stop until the lights stop flashing. The only exception to this is if the bus is stopped on the opposite side of a divided highway.
