Why do I need to know this?

Saturday, August 12th, 2006 at 3:52 pm

A question from the Official Motorcycle Theory Test CD:

“Supertrams or Light Rapid Transit systems (LRT) are environmentally friendly because?
A) They use diesel power
B) They use electric power
C) They use quieter roads
D) They do not operate during rush hour”

This question in no way tests my knowledge of the highway code, safety procedures or anything else that might be useful if I was riding a motorcycle. If it was used in an actual theory test the only reason I can think of it being there is to catch out people who would otherwise be borderline passes.

    B. And you need to know it so that you know where not to ride motorcycle with a 40′ low impedance pole attached to your helmet.
