You should always remember that the average car driver probably does not appreciate that you may need how much more stopping distance than them?

  1. 50%

  2. 100%

  3. 75%

  4. 25%

The correct answer is: 100%

When driving a motorcycle, you should always remember that other car drivers may not understand the unique rules and safety precautions that apply to motorcycles. As a result, it is important to give yourself enough distance to stop safely in case of unexpected situations. Motorcycles require approximately 100% more stopping distance compared to cars. Option A, 50%, may seem like a significant increase but it is not enough to safely account for the difference in stopping distance. Similarly, option C, 75%, is closer to the correct answer but still does not provide a sufficient safety margin. Option D, 25%, is incorrect because motorcycles require much more than just 25% more stopping distance. As a rider, it is your responsibility to maintain a safe distance and be aware of your surroundings while on the road.
