1. Question 1 sur 25

   Which part of the lane is often slippery near intersections?

   • AThe right wheel track
   • BThe centre strip, where oil and grease drip from vehicles
   • CThe left wheel track
   • DThe lane line
   Voir la réponse

   Réponse: B. The centre strip, where oil and grease drip from vehicles

   Oil and grease collect in the centre of the lane where vehicles stop. It is most slippery when wet.

2. Question 2 sur 25

   You must ride over a patch of loose gravel. What should you do?

   • ASpeed up quickly
   • BBrake hard while on the gravel
   • CLean sharply to ride around it
   • DSlow down before it and keep the motorcycle upright with no sudden moves
   Voir la réponse

   Réponse: D. Slow down before it and keep the motorcycle upright with no sudden moves

   Gravel reduces traction. Slow before you reach it and avoid sudden braking, turning or acceleration on it.

3. Question 3 sur 25

   When should you check your tire pressure?

   • AOnly once a year at a shop
   • BOnly when a tire looks flat
   • CWhen the tires are cold, before you ride
   • DRight after a long ride
   Voir la réponse

   Réponse: C. When the tires are cold, before you ride

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

4. Question 4 sur 25

   You are taking a cold medicine that warns about drowsiness. What should you do?

   • ARide only on the highway
   • BDo not ride until you know it will not affect you
   • CRide slowly with the hazard lights on
   • DDrink coffee and ride
   Voir la réponse

   Réponse: B. Do not ride until you know it will not affect you

   Some medicines cause drowsiness or slow reactions. Read the label and ask a pharmacist before you ride.

5. Question 5 sur 25

   You are stopped at a red light with traffic coming up behind you. Why stay in first gear and watch your mirrors?

   • ASo your headlight stays on
   • BSo you can move out of the way if a vehicle behind does not stop
   • CSo you can leave before the light turns green
   • DSo the engine does not overheat
   Voir la réponse

   Réponse: 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.

6. Question 6 sur 25

   Where should you keep your feet while riding?

   • AHanging down near the road
   • BOn the ground at low speeds
   • CResting on the engine guard
   • DFirmly on the footrests, with toes pointing forward
   Voir la réponse

   Réponse: D. Firmly on the footrests, with toes pointing forward

   Keep your feet on the footrests so you are balanced and can reach the shift lever and rear brake. Toes pointing down can catch on the road.

7. Question 7 sur 25

   Why should you downshift as you slow down?

   • ASo the clutch is not needed
   • BSo you can turn off the engine
   • CSo the brake light comes on
   • DSo you are in a gear that lets you speed up again if you need to
   Voir la réponse

   Réponse: 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.

8. Question 8 sur 25

   On most motorcycles, how is the rear brake applied?

   • ABy rolling off the throttle
   • BWith a pedal under your right foot
   • CWith a lever on the left handlebar
   • DWith a pedal under your left foot
   Voir la réponse

   Réponse: B. With a pedal under your right foot

   Most motorcycles use a right foot pedal for the rear brake. Some motorcycles and scooters use hand levers instead.

9. Question 9 sur 25

   Which hand do you use to work the throttle?

   • AThe right hand
   • BThe left hand
   • CEither hand
   • DNeither hand; it is a foot pedal
   Voir la réponse

   Réponse: A. The right hand

   The throttle is the twist grip on the right handlebar. Turning it toward you gives more power.

10. Question 10 sur 25

    What does "covering the brakes" mean?

    • AUsing only engine braking
    • BHaving your fingers on the front brake lever and your foot over the rear pedal
    • CPutting a cover on the brakes when parked
    • DBraking hard all the time
    Voir la réponse

    Réponse: B. Having your fingers on the front brake lever and your foot over the rear pedal

    Covering the brakes cuts your reaction time, because you are ready to brake at once.

11. Question 11 sur 25

    Which describes a correctly fitting motorcycle helmet?

    • ALoosely, so it is easy to take off
    • BWith the strap open at low speeds

    • BIt turns more sharply
    • CIt stops more quickly
    • DIt makes no difference
    Voir la réponse

    Réponse: A. It takes longer to speed up, slow down and turn

    The extra weight affects acceleration, braking and steering. Leave more space and brake earlier.

13. Question 13 sur 25

    Where should the least experienced riders be in a group?

    • AJust behind the leader
    • BSpread out at random
    • CIn front of the leader

    What is a common cause of crashes where a rider runs off the road in a curve?

    • ALooking through the curve
    • BUsing the turn signals
    • CGoing into the curve too fast
    • DKeeping a steady throttle
    Voir la réponse

    Many single-motorcycle crashes happen when riders enter a curve too fast and cannot hold their line. Slow down before the curve.

15. Question 15 sur 25

    What is the only way to bring your blood alcohol level down?

    • ATime
    • BCoffee
    • CFresh air while riding

    • DHold the grips firmly, ease off the throttle and keep a straight course
    Voir la réponse

    Réponse: D. Hold the grips firmly, ease off the throttle and keep a straight course

    Steer straight and slow down gradually. Avoid braking with the flat tire if you can, and pull off the road when you are slow.

17. Question 17 sur 25

    You see fresh drips under your parked motorcycle. What should you do?

    • AWipe the drips and ignore them
    • BRide it and check again later
    • CAdd more fuel
    • DFind the source before you ride
    Voir la réponse

    Réponse: D. Find the source before you ride

    Leaking oil, brake fluid or coolant can cause a breakdown or a crash. A leak onto a tire is especially dangerous.

18. Question 18 sur 25

    What is a safe way to think about other drivers?

    • AAssume they will always give you the right-of-way
    • BAssume they always see you
    • CAssume they may not see you, and ride so you are seen with room to escape
    • DAssume large vehicles always watch for motorcycles
    Voir la réponse

    Réponse: C. Assume they may not see you, and ride so you are seen with room to escape

    Drivers often miss motorcycles. Ride defensively: be visible, keep space and plan an escape route.

    Why is alcohol especially dangerous for motorcycle riders?

    • AAlcohol improves balance
    • BMotorcycles are not covered by impaired driving laws
    • CAlcohol only affects drivers of cars
    • DRiding needs balance and coordination, which alcohol harms
    Voir la réponse

    • AWith a lever in front of your left foot
    • BWith a button on the dash
    • CWith the rear brake pedal
    • DWith a lever on the right handlebar
    Voir la réponse

    Réponse: A. With a lever in front of your left foot

    The gear shift lever is in front of the left footrest. You lift it or press it down with your foot.

21. Question 21 sur 25

    Under the Criminal Code, what blood alcohol concentration is a criminal offence?

    • D100 mg or more in 100 mL of blood
    Voir la réponse

    Réponse: B. 80 mg or more of alcohol in 100 mL of blood

    It is a criminal offence to have a blood alcohol concentration of 80 mg or more in 100 mL of blood. Many provinces set lower limits, and new riders often must have zero.

    At night, what helps you see and be seen?

    • ARiding close to the vehicle ahead to use its lights
    • BUsing a tinted face shield
    • CWearing dark clothing
    • DUsing high beams when there is no oncoming traffic, slowing down and leaving more space
    Voir la réponse

    Réponse: D. Using high beams when there is no oncoming traffic, slowing down and leaving more space

    At night you see less and others see you less. Use your lights well, slow down, keep more space and wear reflective gear.

23. Question 23 sur 25

    Before you slow down or stop, what should you do?

    • ATurn off your headlight
    • BSound your horn
    • CShift into neutral
    • DCheck your mirrors for traffic behind you
    Voir la réponse

    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.

24. Question 24 sur 25

    Which surfaces are especially slippery for a motorcycle when wet?

    • AClean, dry asphalt
    • BPainted lines, metal covers and steel plates
    • CGrass beside the road
    • DRough concrete
    Voir la réponse

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

25. Question 25 sur 25

    When should a group riding in a staggered formation switch to single file?

    • AOnly at night
    • BNever
    • COnly in heavy rain
    • DIn curves, when turning and when entering or leaving a highway
    Voir la réponse

    Réponse: D. In curves, when turning and when entering or leaving a highway

    Single file gives every rider room to use the whole lane in curves and while turning or merging.
