A2Difficulty 2/5

On wet or slippery road markings with an A1 or A2 motorcycle, it is advisable to:

Correct answer

Reduce speed and act smoothly

Reduce speed in advance and use the throttle, brakes and steering smoothly. Wet painted markings may offer less grip; accelerating to cross sooner or braking sharply on them can increase the risk of losing control. Adapt riding to the actual surface condition and avoid abrupt lean or inputs.
