Getting a motorcycle license isn't just about riding—you need to know the laws that keep you and everyone else safe! Each state or country has its own set of rules for motorcycle licensing, but some basics are universal.
Following licensing rules helps prevent accidents and ensures everyone shares the road responsibly. Being licensed shows you’ve learned the basics—like yielding to pedestrians and obeying traffic lights—so you can ride with confidence.
Always carry your motorcycle license when riding. Not having it could mean fines or even losing riding privileges.
A new rider studies for the written exam, passes the skills test, and gets their license before riding on public roads.
A rider gets pulled over and shows their valid motorcycle license to the officer.
Knowing and following the licensing process is the first step to safe and legal motorcycle riding.
