Arkansas Motorcycle Permit: Alcohol, Laws & Licensing Practice Test

Not quite. The answer is stop at least every two hours.

Riding a motorcycle can be more tiring than driving a car. To avoid fatigue, you should stop and take a rest break at least once every two hours.

Not quite. The answer is negligent homicide.

Under Arkansas law, you must stop for a school bus that is stopped on either side of an undivided roadway. If you fail to do so and you accidentally strike and kill a child pedestrian, you will be charged with negligent homicide. Under Arkansas's Isaac's Law, this type of negligent homicide is a Class B felony (not a Class C felony as the Arkansas Driver License Study Guide states). If you are convicted, you will be sentenced to five to twenty years in prison and possibly fined up to $15,000. (The law was named after Isaac Brian, who was killed at the age of nine after exiting a school bus.)

Not quite. The answer is in the front of the tank bag.

When packing your motorcycle, you should pack heavier items in the front of the tank bag. Mounting loads toward the rear of the motorcycle can affect its handling and possibly cause a wobble.

Not quite. The answer is one year

In Arkansas, if you've had an epileptic seizure, you must be under a doctor's care and remain seizure free for one year before your driving privileges can be granted or reinstated. Note: The laws on driving with epilepsy vary from one state to another.

Not quite. The answer is Both of the above

Many legal drugs can cause drowsiness, sedation, or impaired coordination, which can impair your ability to operate a motorcycle safely. Examples include some prescription painkillers, tranquilizers, and antidepressants; and some over-the-counter sleep aids, allergy medications, and cold medications. If a police officer observes you driving erratically and you admit to the officer that you have taken such drugs, you can be charged with DWI. If you are uncertain about the effects of a drug you are taking, check the warning label or ask your pharmacist or doctor.

Not quite. The answer is Both of the above

If you park illegally in a disabled parking space, your vehicle may be towed and impounded, in which case you will be required to pay the applicable towing and impoundment fees. Furthermore, using another person's disabled parking certificate is considered a form of fraud. If you are convicted of doing so and this was your second or subsequent such offense, your license will be suspended for up to six months and you will be fined $500 – $1,000. (Note: The minimum fine was increased from $250 to $500, effective January 1, 2019.) [AR Governor's Commission on People with Disabilities: April 2007, Arkansas Driver License Study Guide],

Not quite. The answer is 0.02%

In Arkansas, a driver under 21 years of age can be arrested and charged with Underage DUI if his or her blood alcohol concentration (BAC) is at least 0.02% but less than 0.08%. (Most people will reach or exceed a BAC of 0.02% after consuming just one alcoholic drink.) If the driver's BAC is 0.08% or more, he or she will be charged with DWI.

Not quite. The answer is Both of the above

A wide variety of circumstances can cause you to lose your license. These include providing false information on your application for the license, failing to notify the DFA of a reportable accident in which you were involved, and conviction for certain serious criminal offenses including DWI, leaving the scene of an accident (hit and run), and using a motor vehicle to commit a felony.

Not quite. The answer is reaches the age of 16.

A person aged 14 or older may obtain a Class MD motor-driven cycle license after passing a vision test, the car and motorcycle knowledge tests, and an on-cycle skills test. A person who holds a Class MD motor-driven cycle license may obtain a Class M motorcycle license once the person is 16 years old.

Not quite. The answer is The law enforcement officer

In Arkansas, if a law enforcement officer requests that you submit to a chemical test for alcohol, he or she will choose the type of test you are to take: blood, breath, or urine. Note: In the case Birchfield v. North Dakota (2016), the Supreme Court ruled that you cannot be legally required to submit to a blood test against your will unless the officer first obtains a search warrant. Arkansas's Implied Consent Law has since been revised to reflect this. [Alcohol and the Law, Drinking and Driving, Arkansas Driver License Study Guide],

Not quite. The answer is None of the above

Unlike some other states, Arkansas does not impose specific noise limitations on motorcycles. However, Arkansas law does require every motor vehicle to have a muffler that prevents "excessive or unusual noise."

Not quite. The answer is 21

If a driver who is at least 18 years old and younger than 21 years old is arrested for purchasing or possessing alcohol, his or her license will be immediately suspended for 60 days for a first offense. If the driver is found guilty of the charge in court, he or she will be fined $100 – $500. (Failing a chemical test for blood alcohol concentration is considered sufficient evidence that the driver was in possession of alcohol.) A driver under 18 years of age who is arrested for purchasing or possessing alcohol will be subject to the Arkansas Juvenile Code.

Not quite. The answer is The time of day

How much alcohol you drink, how fast you drink it, and how much you weigh can all affect your blood alcohol concentration (BAC). The time of day does not affect your BAC. Alcohol can affect your riding abilities at any time.

Not quite. The answer is leave a note identifying yourself.

Under Arkansas law, if you hit an unattended parked vehicle, leave a note on the vehicle where it can be clearly seen. The note must include your name, address, and contact information; the name, address, and contact information of your vehicle's owner (if different from yourself); and a description of the accident and when it occurred.
