Frage 1 von 25
Why should you downshift as you slow down?

- So the brake light comes on
- So you are in a gear that lets you speed up again if you need to
Antwort anzeigen
Antwort: D. So you are in a gear that lets you speed up again if you need to
Being in the right gear lets you speed up quickly to avoid a hazard. When you stop, be in first gear, ready to move.
Frage 2 von 25
Which surfaces are especially slippery for a motorcycle when wet?
- Clean, dry asphalt
- Painted lines, metal covers and steel plates
- Grass beside the road
- Rough concrete
Antwort anzeigen
Antwort: B. Painted lines, metal covers and steel plates
Paint and metal give much less grip when wet. Try to cross them upright, with no hard braking.
Frage 3 von 25
When you swerve to avoid an obstacle, what should you avoid?
- Pressing the handgrip
- Keeping your knees against the tank
- Looking where you want to go
- Braking during the swerve

Brake before or after a swerve, never during it. Braking while swerving can make the tires lose grip.

- Use the front and rear brakes at the same time
- Use only the rear brake
- Use only the front brake

Under normal conditions, use both brakes together. This gives the most control and the shortest stop.

- The rider’s waist or the passenger handholds
- The fuel tank

Holding the rider’s waist or the handholds keeps the passenger secure without pulling the rider off balance.

Riders are at risk of being hit from behind while stopped. Being in gear lets you move quickly to safety.

Riding takes more balance and coordination than driving a car. Even small amounts of alcohol reduce these skills and your judgement.
Frage 22 von 25
You are following a car. Why is it usually better not to ride directly behind it in the centre of the lane?
- The driver may not see you in the mirror, and the car blocks your view
- You will get there faster
- It is too far from the car
- It uses more fuel
Antwort anzeigen
Antwort: A. The driver may not see you in the mirror, and the car blocks your view
Riding in the left or right portion of the lane lets the driver ahead see you in a mirror and lets you see past the vehicle.

- Stand up on the footrests
- Ride on the shoulder
- Speed up
- Slow down and lean slightly into the wind
