Very worthwhile course!


Motorcycle Ohio’s (MO) training course registration is LIVE! Motorcycle training courses will be conducted from April until early November.

Why should you take a safety class?
•   In 58% of accidents that involved a motorcycle in Ohio, the rider was at-fault.
•   Crashes involving unendorsed Ohio riders composed of 45% of reported accidents.
•   At-fault crashes caused by unendorsed riders made up of over 48% of reported accidents.
 
What class should I take?
Education is one part to reducing the number of motorcyclist killed and injured on our highways. The MO program, offered by the Ohio Department of Public Safety, provides different levels of motorcycle safety courses for riders based on their skill levels and objectives.
What do I need to provide?
Classes are held rain or shine so students will need to arrive prepared and must provide the following protective equipment: over-the-ankle footwear, long pants (without any holes), long-sleeved shirt or jacket, full-fingered gloves and eye protection. Depending on the location, helmets may be provided by the training location, though students can provide their own DOT certified helmet for class.
 
Course Offerings.
 
Basic Rider Skills (BRS): recommended for novice riders.
The Basic Rider Skills (BRS) is a 16-hour course. Students will participate in four hours of classroom, and 12 hours of on-cycle training. To participate riders need to hold a valid two-wheel Temporary Instruction Permit Identification Card (TIPIC), license or endorsement.
Learning material & motorcycles are provided. Approved riding gear must be supplied by the students, although helmets may be provided by the training location. Upon successful completion of this course, the student will earn a 60 day BMV skill-test waiver for a motorcycle license or endorsement.

Anyone that's a new rider I try to encourage them to take a rider safety course instead of learning through the college of hard knocks. My cousin use to teach a course at a college in Canada.

I can't understand the reluctance among young people to get motorcycle license.  When I sold a 150cc scooter I had numerous phone calls from people looking for a 50cc so they would not have to get a motorcycle license.

The day I turned 14 I was down at the driver license Examiner office taking my written and driving test on my Yamaha DT-250.
