Motorcycle safety courses – When you take a motorcycle safety course, you will get a course certificate. If you bring this certificate to a DriveTest centre, within six months, you do not need to take the M1 road test – you move directly to the next level (M2). You also will be able to take the second road test sooner, after 18 months instead of the standard 22.

Question 28 Explanation: 

Tractors, farm machinery, or any heavy “equipment” vehicles which travel at speeds of 40km/h or less must display this “Slow-Moving Vehicle” sign.

Question 30

B	Road turns to the left
C	Merge Ahead
D	Road turns to the right

Question 30 Explanation: 

Two-lane section of highway ahead. Slower drivers should keep to the right. Drivers who wish to travel faster (within the speed limit) should pass on the left in the extra lane, then move back to the right lane. Smaller highways often have passing lanes at regular intervals to allow faster traffic to pass under safer conditions. Drivers should be aware that oncoming traffic may also use the extra lane to pass if conditions permit and are safe. “Keep Right Except to Pass” is the general rule when travelling in any situation where there are two or more lanes of traffic travelling in the same direction.

Before you submit a motorcycle loan application, consider taking a look at your credit report. Lenders see motorcycles as risky because bikes are frequently stolen or crashed. As a result, lending requirements are more strict with motorcycles then with cars.
