Maintain control over the motorcycle by using the knees to grip the gas tank firmly. Hold onto the handlebars properly so that if the motorcycle bounces you will not lose control over it.

The centre lane should be avoided since there is no blocking position in that lane. Motorcyclists should use the outer lanes (left if passing, right if driving with the flow of traffic); these lanes permit drivers to adopt an effective blocking position.

Mirrors only give a partial view of the road; there are blind spots even with motorcycles. It is important to perform a shoulder check before changing lanes, even if the mirror suggests the lane is clear.

Stopping on a freeway is dangerous. Backing up or driving in the wrong direction is illegal, unless under the direction of a traffic officer. If an exit is missed, continue driving until the next exit, where it is safe to pull off the highway and plan an alternate route. In most places where there is an off-ramp, there is a corresponding on-ramp for the opposite direction, providing a safe way to travel back to the missed exit. Alternatively, local roads can be used to get back to the correct exit.

The front and rear brakes should ideally be applied together every time, even though front brakes exert greater stopping force.

The category of the motorcycle used in the M1 exit test determines the type of license that will be issued. Use of a limited speed motorcycle in the M1 exit test will result in an M2 license with the L condition.

Assess the possible effects of modifications in advance. Some modifications can affect performance and safety, while others might not meet legal standards; if this is the case, the modifications must not be made.

It is important to be able to anticipate the passing of other vehicles to ensure you are in the prorper lane position.

It is important to maintain proper posture on the motorcycle in order to steer properly and maintain balance and speed. Low placement of the wrists ensures speed is not increased mistakenly; it also enables the rider to reach the front brake lever more effectively.

Reduce speed when approaching an object or pothole and maintain a firm grip on the handlebars to ensure that the motorcycle stays upright and does not turn. While raising yourself, it is essential to grip the handlebar firmly so that your hands do not slip.
