Indiana Motorcycle Permit Practice Test

Not quite. The answer is The lane is reserved for certain purposes or certain vehicles.

A diamond-shaped marking shows that a lane is reserved for certain purposes or certain vehicles. The lanes are usually reserved for buses or carpool vehicles during rush hour traffic.

Not quite. The answer is Straighten the motorcycle upright.

Before stopping in a curve, you should try to straighten the motorcycle upright as much as possible. This is the safest way to stop.

Not quite. The answer is You may go straight or turn right.

This is a regulatory sign that directs you to go straight or make a right turn.

Not quite. The answer is 90 days

If you are convicted of driving with a suspended license, your license will be suspended for a minimum of 90 days and a maximum of 2 years.

Not quite. The answer is When you are descending a large hill

It is least important to check your mirrors when you are descending a large hill.

Not quite. The answer is Being low on oil

If an engine locks, it is likely low on oil. Always check your oil before beginning a trip. If needed, add oil as soon as possible or the engine may seize.

Not quite. The answer is Stop and wait for the pedestrian to cross the road.

If you approach a crosswalk that a pedestrian has just entered, stop before the crosswalk and wait for the pedestrian to finish crossing the road.

Not quite. The answer is At an intersection

The most likely place for a collision is at an intersection. Many drivers are doing different things and may not see the motorcycle.

Not quite. The answer is press the left handgrip.

If an unexpected obstacle requires you to swerve left, you should press the left handgrip. This will cause the motorcycle to lean quickly to the left.

Not quite. The answer is only if you are riding a bicycle.

This sign marks a bicycle lane, intended for bicyclists. Cars and trucks should not usually travel in this lane. However, in many (but not all) states, cars and trucks may travel in this lane for a short distance when preparing to turn at the next intersection.

Not quite. The answer is 45-degree

Usually, it is safer to ride straight within your lane to cross tracks. Turning to take tracks head-on (at a 90-degree angle) can be more dangerous – your path may carry you into another lane of traffic. For tracks, ruts, and road seams that run parallel to your course, move far enough away from the tracks, ruts, or pavement seams to cross them at an angle of at least 45 degrees.

Not quite. The answer is (a) keeping them on the footrests.

Use your feet to maintain balance by keeping them on the footrests.

Not quite. The answer is the front brake.

Most of your motorcycle's stopping power is provided by the front brake.

Not quite. The answer is you need to make a right turn to enter Route 47 north.

This sign tells you to turn right to go north on route 47.

Not quite. The answer is maintain or increase your speed.

To help maintain balance in a turn, you should maintain or increase your speed. Motorcycles are less stable at lower speeds.

Not quite. The answer is slow down so you can stop within the range of your headlight.

At night, you should slow down to a speed that allows you to stop safely within the range of your headlight.

Not quite. The answer is You must go straight.

This sign means that you must go straight. You cannot turn here.

Not quite. The answer is Vehicles must not make U-turns at the sign.

This sign indicates that U-turns are prohibited here.

Not quite. The answer is Use the taillights of the vehicle ahead of you.

To identify bumps in the road at night, watch the taillights of the vehicle ahead of you. If the vehicle's taillights seem to bounce up and down, it is likely driving over bumps.

Not quite. The answer is When your throttle is stuck

If the throttle is stuck and twisting it back and forth does not free it, immediately operate the engine cut-off switch and pull in the clutch at the same time. This will cut power to the rear wheel.
