you
are preparing for your motorcycle test see test
hints
and tips. |
 Even
the most advanced riders consider they learn something every time they
ride. With practice you'll continually improve, but knowing where
to begin can be difficult. Motorcyclists run a much greater risk
of suffering serious injury than car drivers, for obvious
reasons.
Without the protective metal shell, air bags, seat belts and crumple
zones
that a car provides, there is no such thing as a minor accident.
Knowing you were
legally
in the right is largely irrelevant, as any contact may be
serious.
However, if you take advantage of the observation, positioning and
power
available you can balance the risks. These tips are not aimed at
getting
you through your test, but should help you gain confidence and become a
better rider once you’ve passed.

 Safety
must remain your primary and overriding concern when considering any of
these techniques. |
