The AF Motorcycle Driving Theory exam is a multiple-choice knowledge test for riders preparing to operate a motorcycle legally and safely. It is aimed at learner riders, newly licensed riders, and anyone who needs to refresh or convert their motorcycle road knowledge. The exam samples from seven areas: traffic rules and road signs, safe riding and hazard perception, motorcycle controls and vehicle knowledge, rider protection and protective equipment, emergency procedures and first aid, alcohol, drugs and fitness to ride, and documentation and legal responsibilities.
