Weaving in and out of heavy traffic is dangerous and could result in an accident causing injury or death: it is the sure sign of a careless rider.

The first priority should be to try to brake and stop before reaching the animal. If that is not possible, try manoeuvring around it. Be certain to adjust speed before taking evasive action.

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.

The expression, "right of way", is a quick way to remember that the vehicle approaching from the right is to proceed first. Some drivers do not observe the 'right of way' rule; always enter the intersection carefully, and be aware of the actions of other drivers.

Use the left tire track. This ensures other drivers on the road can see the motorcycle clearly and will help keep them from entering the lane in which the motorcyclist is driving.

Use the right tire track. This ensures other drivers on the road can see the motorcyclist clearly and will help keep them from entering the lane in which the motorcyclist is driving at the time.

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.

Drivers must ensure that they slow down as much as needed before taking turns. Taking a turn too quickly is dangerous and results in many motorcycle accidents. Attempting to brake during the turn can also result in the driver having an accident.

Placing the helmet on the ground near the bike is a universal signal to alert other drivers that help is needed.

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.

Bright colours such as red and yellow are recommended. Reflective vests and reflective stripes on helmets and jackets are also beneficial.

Regular checks and repair of these parts, which can wear out over time, will help drivers avoid accident or injury. Drivers should also check the coolant and the battery of the motorcycle on a regular basis, depending upon the make of the motorcycle.

Avoid shifting gears on a curve by reducing speed before entering the curve as much as necessary. Shifting gears on a curve may be necessary at times to accelerate or decelerate according to road conditions, but be sure to do so smoothly and carefully.

If these steps are not followed correctly, the motorcycle will most likely not start. Once the engine starts, a motorcyclist should change to first gear keeping feet on the ground. Apply the throttle slightly, releasing the clutch slowly as the motorcycle begins to move forward. Move feet to the footrests, continue to release the clutch, and accelerate as needed to drive forward. Shift to second gear using the clutch and throttle appropriately when the motorcycle reaches the correct speed.

Always follow the rules of the road when attempting to pass other vehicles. Do not attempt to pass when oncoming traffic is too close to pass safely. Be sure to accurately judge the time and distance required to safely pass other vehicles.

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.

Bright colours such as red and yellow are recommended. Reflective vests and reflective stripes on helmets and jackets are also beneficial.

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.

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 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.
