Remain a good distance from large vehicles, especially when they are about to turn. Large vehicles make wide turns, and have large blind spots. Moving into the space that opens up as a large vehicle swings out to make its turn could result in the motorcyclist being hit, since the driver of the large vehicle will most likely not be able to see the motorcycle.

The newly-purchased vehicle must be registered within 6 days at a Driver and License Issuing Office. At the time of registration, the purchaser must present a Used Vehicle Information package, usually provided by the seller, which includes required details about the vehicle.

One should never secure the cargo to the back of the seat since this changes the weight and balance of the motorcycle by changing the centre of gravity.

A staggered formation allows motorcyclists to drive close to each other in a group but prevents them from driving too close or alongside one another. Using staggered formation, motorcyclists ensure they have enough room in which to safely maneuver.

Black ice is so named because the ice forms such a thin layer that it can't be seen even on the black asphalt. It builds everywhere, but especially on bridges. This happens because bridges are prone to severely cold air from below and the drastic drop in temperature causes a thin layer of ice to form.

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 throttle is located on the right handgrip and helps control the speed of the motorcycle. When twisted inward towards the rider the throttle releases fuel which flows to the engine.

Motorcyclists should always apply both brakes smoothly at the same time. This ensures safer, more efficient stopping. Do not apply the brakes in a sudden, jerky manner.
