If a motorcycle does not have indicator signals, or if they fail to work, motorcyclists must use proper hand signals to communicate with other drivers on the road.

When carrying a passenger, drive slowly and leave more space between vehicles since the motorcycle will respond slower due to the extra weight.

Drivers must ensure that they slow down as much as needed before taking turns. Taking a turn too quickly is dangerous and results in many motorcycle accidents. Attempting to brake during the turn can also result in the driver having an accident.

A seized engine means the engine has frozen or become locked. There are usually some warning signs before this happens, so motorcyclists have some time to react before the engine seizes and the wheels lock. It is important to stop and pull over before that happens.

M1 drivers are barred by law from carrying passengers. Even M2 motorcyclists are advised to avoid carrying heavy cargo or passengers as much as possible.

It is essential to maintain a proper road position to stay safe on the road.

Always slow down as much as possible whenever possible before reaching a slippery spot. Slippery surfaces can be dangerous because they cause tires to lose traction on the road and increase the possibility of skids and accidents.

It is illegal for M1 drivers to carry passengers at any time. Passengers are never permitted on mopeds.

Applying forward pressure on the handlebar of the turning side causes the motorcycle to lean while pushing on the other handlebar and applying the throttle causes the motorcycle to straighten and finish the turn.

To ensure safety, always stop a good distance - 5 metres at least - from the train tracks when the barrier is down and/or the lights are flashing. Motorcyclists should never attempt to cross around or under gates that have been lowered for an approaching train. Motorcyclists must drive on only after the gates have been raised and it is safe to do so.
