Question 1653 in the bank

What is the risk of riding a motorcycle in the dark?

  1. The low temperatures to which the motorcycle is exposed.
  2. Correct answer: The difficulty to assess the nature of the road and to detect obstacles in time.
  3. The difficulty to see other vehicles that drive behind him only.
  4. The low temperatures to which the rider is exposed.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: The difficulty to assess the nature of the road and to detect obstacles in time.

In the dark it is harder to see the road, so it is hard to check the road surface continuously and to detect in time potholes, gravel, oil stains or other obstacles. For a motorcycle rider even a small obstacle can cause a loss of balance and a fall. Therefore you should slow down and adjust your speed to what you can see.
