   • BUse only the rear brake
   • CUse only the front brake
   • DDownshift without braking
   Voir la réponse

   Réponse: A. Use the front and rear brakes at the same time

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

   • AMud on the tire
   • BOnly the colour of the sidewall
   • COnly whether the valve cap is present
   • DCuts, bulges, objects stuck in the tread and worn tread
   Voir la réponse

   Réponse: D. Cuts, bulges, objects stuck in the tread and worn tread

   Damage or wear can cause a sudden loss of air or grip. Check tread and sidewalls before you ride.

3. Question 3 sur 25

   Item 6 in the diagram shows boots. What kind of footwear should you wear when you ride?

   • ARunning shoes
   • BSandals
   • CLow dress shoes
   • DSturdy boots that cover your ankles
   Voir la réponse

   Réponse: D. Sturdy boots that cover your ankles

   Boots that cover the ankles protect your feet and ankles and give good grip when you stop. Saskatchewan requires ankle-covering boots for new riders.

4. Question 4 sur 25

   Which path through the curve is shown in the diagram?

   • AOutside of the lane, then inside, then outside again
   • BOutside of the lane all the way
   • CInside of the lane all the way
   • DAcross the centre line and back
   Voir la réponse

   Réponse: A. Outside of the lane, then inside, then outside again

   An outside-inside-outside path gives you a better view and a gentler line through the curve, if traffic and the road allow.

5. Question 5 sur 25

   During your pre-ride check, you twist the throttle and let go. What should happen?

   • AIt should snap back to the closed position by itself
   • BThe brake light should come on
   • CIt should stay where you left it
   • DThe engine should stall
   Voir la réponse

   Réponse: A. It should snap back to the closed position by itself

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

6. Question 6 sur 25

   A driver is tailgating you. What should you do?

   • AIncrease the space ahead of you, or change lanes to let them pass
   • BSpeed up as fast as you can
   • CBrake suddenly to warn them
   • DRide on the shoulder
   Voir la réponse

   Réponse: 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.

7. Question 7 sur 25

   During your pre-ride check, how should you test the brake light?

   • AThere is no need to test it if the headlight works
   • BCheck it only with the rear pedal
   • CCheck that it flashes with the turn signals
   • DCheck that it comes on with the front lever and with the rear pedal
   Voir la réponse

   Réponse: 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.

8. Question 8 sur 25

   The rider in the diagram presses the right handgrip forward. Which way does the motorcycle go?

   • AThe motorcycle leans left and turns left
   • BThe motorcycle goes straight and slows down
   • CThe motorcycle leans right and turns right
   • DThe front brake comes on
   Voir la réponse

   Réponse: C. The motorcycle leans right and turns right

   This is countersteering. Pressing the right grip forward makes the motorcycle lean and turn right.

9. Question 9 sur 25

   Why should you check the side stand before you ride?

   • AIt holds your helmet while riding
   • BIt is needed to start the engine
   • CIf it does not stay up, it can dig into the road in a left lean
   • DIt helps you brake
   Voir la réponse

   Réponse: 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.

10. Question 10 sur 25

    On a hot day, why should you still wear a jacket with long sleeves?

    • AIt is only needed on gravel roads
    • BIt protects your skin if you fall and shields you from wind and sun
    • CIt is only needed in cold weather
    • DIt makes the motorcycle faster
    Voir la réponse

    Réponse: B. It protects your skin if you fall and shields you from wind and sun

    Riding clothing protects your skin from the road surface in a fall. It also reduces sunburn and the drying effect of the wind.

11. Question 11 sur 25

    Look at the staggered formation in the diagram. In which part of the lane does the leader (rider 1) ride?

    • AIn the right part of the lane
    • BIn the left part of the lane
    • COn the shoulder
    • DIn the centre of the lane
    Voir la réponse

    Réponse: B. In the left part of the lane

    The leader rides in the left part of the lane. The next rider takes the right part, and the pattern repeats.

12. Question 12 sur 25

    A strong crosswind is pushing you toward the edge of the road. What helps?

    • AStand up on the footrests
    • BRide on the shoulder
    • CSpeed up
    • DSlow down and lean slightly into the wind
    Voir la réponse

    Strong wind can push a motorcycle off its line. Slow down and be ready for gusts on open roads, bridges and when passing large vehicles.

13. Question 13 sur 25

    How should a passenger move in turns?

    • ASit stiffly upright while the motorcycle leans
    • BLean with the rider and the motorcycle
    • CLean the opposite way to balance
    • DPut a foot down to help
    Voir la réponse

    A passenger who leans with the rider makes the motorcycle easier to control.

14. Question 14 sur 25

    • APressing the handgrip
    • BKeeping your knees against the tank
    • CLooking where you want to go
    • DBraking during the swerve
    Voir la réponse

    Réponse: D. Braking during the swerve

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

    In the staggered group in the diagram, what gap should rider 2 keep behind the leader?

    • AAbout one second
    • BAbout ten seconds
    • CHalf a second
    • DDirectly beside the leader

    • AThe rear handholds
    • BThe seat
    • CThe passenger footpegs
    • DThe hot exhaust pipes and muffler
    Voir la réponse

    Réponse: D. The hot exhaust pipes and muffler

    Exhaust parts get very hot and can cause serious burns. Tell your passenger before the ride.

18. Question 18 sur 25

    The front wheel starts to wobble at speed. What should you do?

    • ALet go of the handlebars

    Marker 3 in the diagram shows where the passenger’s hands go. What should they hold?

    • AThe rider’s shoulders
    • BThe rider’s waist or the passenger handholds
    • CThe fuel tank
    • DNothing; they should balance
    Voir la réponse

    Réponse: B. The rider’s waist or the passenger handholds

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

    Why should a rider wear brightly coloured clothing with reflective material?

    • AIt is required on every highway in Canada
    • BIt keeps the rider cooler
    • CIt makes the rider easier for other road users to see
    • DIt reduces wind noise
    Voir la réponse

    Réponse: C. 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.

21. Question 21 sur 25

    Item 4 in the diagram shows gloves. What kind of gloves should a rider wear?

    • AThin cotton gloves
    • BFull-fingered gloves made for riding
    • CFingerless gloves
    • DNo gloves, for a better feel of the controls
    Voir la réponse

    Réponse: B. Full-fingered gloves made for riding

    Full-fingered riding gloves protect your hands in a fall and give a better grip. Saskatchewan, for example, requires finger-covering gloves for riders in its graduated program.

22. Question 22 sur 25

    Marker 4 in the diagram shows the passenger’s feet. When should they keep them on the passenger footpegs?

    • AAt all times, even when the motorcycle is stopped

    • COnly when the rider asks
    • DOnly on the highway
    Voir la réponse

    Réponse: A. At all times, even when the motorcycle is stopped

    The passenger keeps their feet on the footpegs at all times. The rider supports the motorcycle when it stops.

    • AIt has a tinted visor
    • BIt is painted a bright colour
    • CIt has a label such as DOT, Snell or ECE
    • DIt was the most expensive in the store
    Voir la réponse

    Réponse: C. It has a label such as DOT, Snell or ECE

    Approved helmets carry a label from a safety standard, such as DOT, Snell or ECE. Colour and price do not show that a helmet is safe.

24. Question 24 sur 25

    Your helmet hits the pavement hard when it falls off your seat. What should you do?

    • AKeep using it if you see no cracks
    • BCover the scratches with paint
    • CReplace it, because it may be damaged inside
    • DUse it only for short trips
    Voir la réponse

    Réponse: C. Replace it, because it may be damaged inside

    A hard impact can damage the protective lining even when the outside looks fine. Replace a helmet after a hard hit.
