Answer and explanation in the bank
- Q17Motorcycle control
How does a pillion passenger's weight primarily affect the motorcycle's braking distance?
- AIt decreases braking distance because more weight presses the tyres onto the road

- CIt has no effect on braking distance if the motorcycle has ABS
- DIt only affects braking distance on wet roads
Answer and explanation in the bank
- Q18Motorcycle control
When riding downhill, why is engine braking recommended in addition to using the friction brakes?
- AIt is faster than using the hand and foot brakes
- BIt prevents the rear wheel from spinning due to engine torque
