Michigan Moped Training Practice Test

When approaching unsafe road surfaces, what should you do?

Speed up to minimize exposure. Slow down and test your breaks. Turn away sharply. Stay in the same speed.

Correct Answer:

Slow down and test your breaks.

Explanation:

Approaching unsafe road surfaces, slow down and test your brakes. Slowing gives you more time to react and makes it easier to stop safely on slippery or damaged pavement. Testing your brakes means gradually applying them to feel how the surface responds—if the wheels skid or grab suddenly, ease off and adjust your speed. On a moped, use smooth, progressive braking with both brakes so you maintain control and avoid locking a wheel. The other options raise risk: speeding up reduces your control, turning sharply can throw you off balance or into danger, and staying at the same speed doesn’t leave you enough time to react to the hazard.
