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.

It is best to drive around objects on the road, but if you are unable to do so, use special care when driving over the object. Grip the handlebars firmly, maintain a straight path, and use the footrests to rise slightly above the seat. To protect the front suspension somewhat, apply the throttle, but only slightly. To maintain better control of the bike, avoid stiffening up.

Every vehicle using public roads in Ontario must have a legal license plate. Drivers are required to carry proof of insurance as well as the vehicle permit for the vehicle being driven.

It is always important to carry the required documents when riding your motorcycle.

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.

It is important to signal your lane change, to communicate with traffic, the change in direction you are planning on taking.

Motorcyclists should always adjust lane position according to road conditions. When driving around a blind curve, keep an eye out for slick spots, road ruts, debris or bumps.

Avoid other drivers’ blind spots whenever possible. Use caution when you have no choice but to drive in someone's blind spot. If possible, avoid having other vehicles drive in your blind spot: slow down, speed up, or change lanes as the situation warrants.

If it is necessary to pull off the road, be sure to park the motorcycle as far away from driving lanes as possible. The motorcyclist should move even further from the road if possible: standing right beside the motorcycle could be dangerous as sometimes vehicles parked alongside the roadway are sideswiped by passing traffic. Placing a helmet on the ground near the back of the parked motorcycle is a sign of assistance needed.
