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

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.

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.

A motorcycle training course designed and/or authorized by the Ministry will ensure new drivers learn the necessary skills and develop the know-how to drive safely. Most courses provide the Level 1 exit test as part of the course and reduce the length of time needed at the M2 level.

Motorcyclists should only drive in a right or left lane in order to have a blocking position. Blocking positions are important because they prevent other drivers from driving too close to the motorcycle.

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.

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

Maintain a firm grip on the handlebars. Reduce speed by closing the throttle. Do not apply the brakes, since that only makes the motorcycle more difficult to control. Never increase speed when the motorcycle is wobbling.

In addition to decreasing the amount of time spent at the M2 level, a motorcycle safety course teaches relevant driving skills and provides invaluable instructions on safety.

Special care should be taken when towing a trailer with a motorcycle. The trailer must have a mandatory white plate light, two red reflectors on the rear and a red tail light.
