You must be at least 16 to apply for a permit. A motorcycle permit or license allows you to operate a motorcycle, motorbike, scooter, or moped on public roads.

To receive a motorcycle instruction permit, you must apply, submit your required documentation, pay the fees, and pass the vision screening, the motorcycle knowledge exam, and the road signs test.

To receive a Class M license, you must apply, submit the required documentation, hold a valid motorcycle instruction permit, pass the motorcycle skills test, and pay the fees. The motorcycle skills test can be waived if you successfully complete a BRC.

The road signs test examines your ability to recognize various road and traffic signs. The motorcycle rider skills test assesses your ability to operate your motorcycle safely.
