Motorcycle Safety Information

The Motorcycle Safety Programs section of the Motor Vehicle Division provides information on safe riding. The Motorcycle Safety Foundation's Motorcycle Basic Rider Course is used for our safety program. This 16-hour course concentrates on basic and complex physical skills, mental skills and risk management found lacking in the crash-involved motorcyclist. Experienced motorcyclists are trained as instructors in the 9-day instructor course.
