Ouch! While you were on a roll there for a few questions, you didn’t pass this time. But I know this test, and I think you’ll pass next time. Really.
Use both brakes every time you slow or stop. It is important to be able to brake quickly by using both brakes.
The front brake of a motorcycle is more powerful that the rear brake and can provide at least 70 percent of the bike's total stopping power.
Improper braking is a significant contributing factor to many motorcycle crashes. Using a proper braking technique is an important part of riding safely.
If a hazard requires you to brake and swerve, you should take these actions separately. Never brake while swerving because doing so can cause your motorcycle to fall over.
Anticipate potential problems that can be created by factors on the roadway. Make a plan to reduce their risks.
While it is most important to be aware of what is ahead of you on the road, you cannot ignore what is behind you. You can keep track of the situation behind you by checking your mirrors consistently.
Locking the brakes can cause control problems. If your front brake locks, you should release the brake then immediately re-apply it. If you lock your rear brake when stopping on a good traction surface, keep it locked until you have completely stopped.
While searching the road for potential hazards, focus on looking for escape routes in or around intersections, shopping areas, schools, and construction zones.
Warning signs are yellow with black lettering or symbols and provide important information to motorists about upcoming road conditions. This sign warns that a railroad crossing is ahead.
White lines are used to separate traffic moving in the same direction. Solid lines indicate that operators are not permitted to pass, whereas dashed lines indicate that operators are permitted to pass, if it is safe to do so.
Keep your head and eyes up when riding through a work zone. Ride slowly over the grooved pavement.
Jackets and pants should fit snugly enough that they do not flap in the wind, but also loosely enough that you are able to move freely.
You should shift down through the gears with the clutch as you slow or stop. Remain in first gear while stopped so you can move quickly, if needed.
You should always conduct a thorough safety inspection of your motorcycle before you ride. A small technical issue on a motorcycle can be more dangerous than a small technical issue on a car.
Ask your passenger to wait to mount the motorcycle until after you have started the engine. They should sit as far forward as possible without crowding you and firmly hold onto your waist, hips, or belt.
The best way to help others see your motorcycle is to have your headlight turned on (as well as your running lights, if applicable). Use your high beam headlight both day and night, whenever it is legal and safe to do so.
Most motorcycle crashes happen in broad daylight. To maximize your chances of being seen, you should wear clothing with reflective material when riding, even during the day. Always wear clothing that covers your arms and legs.
To avoid becoming fatigued when riding your motorcycle on a long trip, limit how much time is spent riding each day and take frequent rest breaks. Avoid the use of artificial stimulants because you may experience extreme fatigue when they start to wear off.
In general, it is best for a group to ride in a staggered formation. Move into a single-file formation when taking a curve, making a turn, entering a highway, or leaving a highway.
To provide maximum grip and protection, riding gloves should be made of leather or a similar durable material.
Passing must be completed within posted speed limits. Only pass another vehicle where it is safe and legal to do so.
A solid white line on the side of the road is used to indicate the right edge of a traffic lane.
It is a good idea to get into the habit of using both the front and rear brakes every time you slow or stop.
A primary cause of single-vehicle collisions is motorcyclists running too wide in a curve or turn. Taking a turn too wide can cause a motorcycle to leave the roadway or collide with an object.
This sign is displayed on the rear of slow-moving vehicles that may be moving more slowly than 25 mph, such as construction equipment, farm machinery, or horse-drawn vehicles.
