   • 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.

2. Question 2 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.

3. Question 3 sur 25

   A driver ahead looks like they may pull out of a driveway. What can you do to warn them?

   • AGive a quick tap on the horn and be ready to stop
   • BWave your arm
   • CRev the engine loudly
   • DFlash your brake light
   Voir la réponse

   A short beep can alert a driver who has not seen you. Slow down and be ready in case they still pull out.

   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.

5. Question 5 sur 25

   • AMirrors on motorcycles are not adjustable
   • BWhile riding on the highway
   • COnly after you start to turn
   • DBefore you ride, while sitting on the motorcycle
   Voir la réponse

   Réponse: D. Before you ride, while sitting on the motorcycle

   Adjust your mirrors while seated in your riding position, before you move. Adjusting them while riding takes your attention away from the road.

   • 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.

7. Question 7 sur 25

   How do you measure your following distance?

   • ACheck your speedometer
   • BCount the number of car lengths
   • CWatch the other vehicle’s brake lights

   Voir la réponse

   Réponse: D. When the vehicle ahead passes a fixed object, count the seconds until you reach it

   Pick a fixed point such as a sign or post. Count from when the vehicle ahead passes it until you reach it.

8. Question 8 sur 25

   • AUse the front and rear brakes at the same time
   • 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.

9. Question 9 sur 25

   What should you check on a motorcycle with a chain drive?

   • AThat the chain has the right slack and is lubricated
   • BThat the chain is as tight as possible
   • CThat the chain is dry and clean of oil
   • DNothing; chains never need checking
   Voir la réponse

   Réponse: A. That the chain has the right slack and is lubricated

   A chain that is too loose can come off, and one that is too tight can wear quickly. Follow the owner’s manual for slack and lubrication.

10. Question 10 sur 25

    • CRide onto the shoulder at speed
    • DSpeed up to pass it quickly
    Voir la réponse

    Large animals are unpredictable. Slowing down and preparing to stop gives you the best chance to avoid them.

    • APosition 1
    • BPosition 3
    • CThe centre line itself
    • DPosition 2

    • DKeep squeezing the front brake harder
    Voir la réponse

    • CSo you can leave before the light turns green
    • DSo the engine does not overheat
    Voir la réponse

    • ALean your body further than the motorcycle
    • BKeep your body upright while the motorcycle leans

    • DLean your body the opposite way to the turn and look down

    • BWith a pedal under your right foot
    • CWith a lever on the right handlebar
    • DWith a button on the fuel tank

    How should you use the throttle through a curve?

    • AClose it fully in the middle of the curve
    • BPull in the clutch and coast
    • CKeep it steady or roll it on gently
    • DOpen it fully as you enter
    Voir la réponse

    Réponse: C. Keep it steady or roll it on gently

    A steady or slightly increasing throttle keeps the motorcycle stable through the curve. Closing it suddenly can upset your balance.

18. Question 18 sur 25

    You notice you are riding beside a car, in the driver’s blind spot. What should you do?

    • ASound your horn and stay there
    • BSpeed up or drop back so the driver can see you
    • CMove closer to the car
    • DStay beside the car so you are close
    Voir la réponse

    Do not ride where a driver cannot see you. Change your position so you are visible in their mirrors or ahead of them.

    You must stop quickly while leaning in a curve. What should you do first?

    • AUse only the rear brake while leaning
    • BBrake as hard as you can while leaning
    • CStraighten the motorcycle, then brake firmly
    • DSpeed up to get out of the curve
    Voir la réponse

    Réponse: C. Straighten the motorcycle, then brake firmly

    Hard braking while leaned over can make the tires slide. Bring the motorcycle upright first, then brake.

20. Question 20 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.

    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.

    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

    Réponse: D. Riding needs balance and coordination, which alcohol harms

    Riding takes more balance and coordination than driving a car. Even small amounts of alcohol reduce these skills and your judgement.

23. Question 23 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.

24. Question 24 sur 25

    • BThe full lane
    • COnly the right third
    • DHalf the lane
    Voir la réponse

    Réponse: B. The full lane

    A motorcycle needs the whole lane to move away from hazards. Drivers should not share a lane with a motorcycle.

    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

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