Drivers should pull off the road when feeling tired or when needing to check anything. Ensure that the spot is away from the main road in order to reduce the possibility of being rear-ended or sideswiped by other vehicles.

Railway crossings are potentially hazardous due to the fact that trains travel much faster than they seem, and cannot stop quickly. It can take 2 km or more for a train to stop even when brakes are fully applied. Never depend on a train to be able to stop on time to avoid you, and drive on only once the train has passed. Other hazards at railway crossings may include having to stop for other vehicles, and the loss of traction which can occur because train tracks are slippery at all times, and more so when they are wet.

Providing false proof of insurance is a felony; consequences could include a large fine, a license suspension, or confiscation of the motorcycle in question.

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.

Passengers should also be instructed to keep their feet on the footrests, to lean when the driver leans, to refrain from the sudden movement, and to avoid talking to the driver.
