Before you slow down or stop, what should you do?
- Turn off your headlight
- Sound your horn
- Shift into neutral
- Check your mirrors for traffic behind you
Ver respuesta
Respuesta: D. Check your mirrors for traffic behind you
A driver behind may not expect you to slow down. Checking your mirrors tells you if you need to warn them or leave more room.
Pregunta 2 de 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
Ver respuesta

Paint and metal give much less grip when wet. Try to cross them upright, with no hard braking.

- With a pedal under your right foot
- With a pedal under your left foot
- With a lever on the right handlebar
- With a lever on the left handlebar

The front brake lever is on the right handlebar, in front of the throttle. The rear brake is usually a pedal under your right foot.
Pregunta 4 de 25
A driver is tailgating you. What should you do?
- Increase the space ahead of you, or change lanes to let them pass
- Speed up as fast as you can
- Brake suddenly to warn them
- Ride on the shoulder
Ver respuesta
Respuesta: A. Increase the space ahead of you, or change lanes to let them pass
More space ahead gives you and the tailgater time to stop. If you can, let them go by.
Pregunta 5 de 25
You are stopped at a red light with traffic coming up behind you. Why stay in first gear and watch your mirrors?
- So your headlight stays on
- So you can move out of the way if a vehicle behind does not stop
- So you can leave before the light turns green
- So the engine does not overheat
Ver respuesta
Respuesta: B. So you can move out of the way if a vehicle behind does not stop
Riders are at risk of being hit from behind while stopped. Being in gear lets you move quickly to safety.
Pregunta 6 de 25
Parked vehicles block your view of an intersection. What should you do?

- Ride in the bike lane
- Stop beside the parked vehicles and wait for a signal
- Speed up through the intersection
Ver respuesta
Respuesta: A. Choose a lane position that lets you see and be seen, and edge forward slowly
Move to where drivers can see you and you can see them. Edge forward until you have a clear view.
Pregunta 7 de 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
Ver respuesta
Respuesta: 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.
Pregunta 8 de 25
When should you leave more than the minimum following distance?
- Only on dry, sunny days
- Never; two seconds is always enough
- Only when you carry a passenger in town
- On wet or slippery roads, at night and behind large vehicles
Ver respuesta
Respuesta: D. On wet or slippery roads, at night and behind large vehicles
You need more time and space when traction is poor, when it is hard to see, and when a large vehicle blocks your view.
Pregunta 9 de 25
Does a windshield on your motorcycle take the place of a face shield or goggles?
- Only when it is raining
- Only on the highway
- No, wind, rain, dust and insects can still reach your eyes
- Yes, a windshield replaces eye protection
Ver respuesta
Respuesta: C. No, wind, rain, dust and insects can still reach your eyes
A windshield does not protect your eyes the way a face shield or goggles do. Wear eye protection on every ride.

- Outside of the lane, then inside, then outside again
- Outside of the lane all the way
- Inside of the lane all the way
- Across the centre line and back

An outside-inside-outside path gives you a better view and a gentler line through the curve, if traffic and the road allow.
Pregunta 12 de 25
During your pre-ride check, how should you test the brake light?
- There is no need to test it if the headlight works
- Check it only with the rear pedal
- Check that it flashes with the turn signals
- Check that it comes on with the front lever and with the rear pedal
Ver respuesta
Respuesta: D. Check that it comes on with the front lever and with the rear pedal
Each brake control should turn on the brake light. Drivers behind need to see that you are slowing.
Pregunta 13 de 25
When is a road usually most slippery in the rain?
- When the rain has stopped and the road is dry
- Only when the rain is heavy
- Just after it starts to rain
- After several hours of steady rain
Ver respuesta
Respuesta: C. Just after it starts to rain
When rain first falls, it mixes with oil on the road. The surface becomes very slick until the oil washes away.
Pregunta 14 de 25
During your pre-ride check, you twist the throttle and let go. What should happen?
- It should snap back to the closed position by itself
- The brake light should come on
- It should stay where you left it

A throttle that does not close by itself is dangerous. Have it fixed before you ride.

- The motorcycle goes straight and slows down
- The motorcycle leans right and turns right

- Only when a tire looks flat
- When the tires are cold, before you ride
- Right after a long ride

Check tire pressure when the tires are cold. Warm tires give a higher reading than the true cold pressure.

- It is required on every highway in Canada
- It keeps the rider cooler
- It makes the rider easier for other road users to see

Many crashes happen because a driver did not see the rider. Bright colours by day and reflective material at night help you stand out.

The motorcycle tends to go where you look. Turn your head and look through the turn to where you want to be.
Pregunta 21 de 25
Why should you check the side stand before you ride?
- It holds your helmet while riding
- It is needed to start the engine
- If it does not stay up, it can dig into the road in a left lean
- It helps you brake
Ver respuesta
Respuesta: C. If it does not stay up, it can dig into the road in a left lean
A side stand that drops while you ride can catch on the road surface in a turn and cause a crash. Make sure the spring holds it up.

- Between the parked cars and the curb
- The left portion of the lane, away from the parked cars
