Question: 1 / 400

What happens if the engine on a PWC returns to idle or shuts off during operation?

The radio signal is lost

All steering control is lost

When the engine on a PWC returns to idle or shuts off during operation, all steering control is lost because the engine is what powers the steering system. Without the engine, the PWC will have no control over steering and could potentially cause an accident. Options A and D are unrelated to the engine shutting off and therefore incorrect. Option C is also incorrect because without the engine, the PWC will not be able to speed up.
