Question 1Licensing & ID

In Manitoba, what is the minimum age at which a person may apply for a Class 6 learner (novice) licence?

  1. 16 years and 3 months
  2. 15 years and 6 months
  3. 16 years Correct answer.
  4. 18 years

Explanation

Manitoba issues the Class 6 learner stage to applicants who have reached their sixteenth birthday. A younger person cannot begin the graduated licensing program even with parental consent. Age is verified with acceptable identification at the time of application.

Question 2Licensing & ID

Which document is normally required as proof of identity when a person applies for a Manitoba driver's licence for the first time?

  1. A workplace ID badge
  2. A library card
  3. A utility bill in the applicant's name
  4. A birth certificate or other accepted primary identity document Correct answer.

Explanation

Manitoba requires primary identity documents, such as a birth certificate, to establish legal name, date of birth and identity. Supporting documents may also be requested to confirm Manitoba residency. Cards issued by clubs or employers do not establish identity for licensing purposes.

Question 3Licensing & ID

A new Manitoba resident holds a valid out-of-province Class 5 licence. What must the person generally do to keep driving legally after establishing residency?

  1. Nothing, because out-of-province licences remain valid indefinitely
  2. Surrender the out-of-province licence only when it expires
  3. Wait one full year before applying for a Manitoba licence
  4. Apply for a Manitoba licence within the time limit set for new residents Correct answer.

Explanation

New residents are expected to exchange their valid licence for a Manitoba one within the period set by Manitoba Public Insurance. Driving on the foreign or out-of-province licence indefinitely is not permitted once residency is established. The exchange usually requires proof of identity and of the existing licence.

Question 4Licensing & ID

What does the Class 6 learner stage in Manitoba require regarding supervision while driving?

  1. Any passenger over eighteen may supervise
  2. No supervision is required during daylight hours
  3. Supervision is required only on highways
  4. A supervising driver who holds a valid full licence and meets the required experience sits beside the learner Correct answer.

Explanation

A Class 6 learner must drive with a qualified supervising driver seated in the front passenger seat. The supervisor must hold a valid full-stage licence and meet the experience conditions set by Manitoba Public Insurance. Supervision is required at all times and on all roads during the learner stage.

Question 5Licensing & ID

During the Class 6 learner stage, which passenger restriction applies to the learner driver?

  1. Passengers are allowed only after dark
  2. No passengers other than the supervising driver are permitted Correct answer.
  3. Only one passenger under eighteen is allowed
  4. Any number of passengers may ride if seat belts are used

Explanation

The learner stage limits the vehicle occupants to the learner and the qualified supervising driver. Extra passengers are not permitted because they increase distraction for an inexperienced rider or driver. The restriction is lifted as the person moves to later stages of the program.

Question 6Licensing & ID

How long must a person generally hold the Class 6 learner stage before becoming eligible for the intermediate stage in Manitoba?

  1. At least nine months Correct answer.
  2. At least twenty-four months
  3. At least one month
  4. At least three months

Explanation

Manitoba requires a minimum learner period of nine months before the intermediate stage can be entered. The time must be served without licence suspensions that would restart or extend the period. Meeting the minimum time alone is not enough; other conditions must also be satisfied.

Question 7Licensing & ID

What class of licence does a Manitoba motorcycle rider progress to after successfully completing the learner stage?

  1. Class 3
  2. Class 5
  3. Class 6 intermediate Correct answer.
  4. Class 1

Explanation

The graduated motorcycle program moves from the Class 6 learner stage to the Class 6 intermediate stage. Full Class 6 privileges come only after the intermediate conditions are met. Classes 1, 3 and 5 cover other vehicle types and do not represent the motorcycle progression.

Question 8Licensing & ID

A Class 6 intermediate rider in Manitoba must generally maintain what blood alcohol level while riding?

  1. Zero, because any alcohol is prohibited Correct answer.
  2. Under 0.08
  3. The same limit as a fully licensed driver
  4. Under 0.05

Explanation

Intermediate-stage drivers and riders are subject to a zero blood alcohol requirement. Consuming any alcohol before riding can lead to sanctions even if the person feels unaffected. Full licence holders face the standard provincial limits, but novices do not.

Question 9Licensing & ID

Which condition applies to a Class 6 intermediate rider carrying passengers in Manitoba?

  1. Passengers are permitted subject to the intermediate-stage conditions set by Manitoba Public Insurance Correct answer.
  2. No passengers are ever permitted at the intermediate stage
  3. Passengers are permitted only if the rider is accompanied by a full-licence rider
  4. Only passengers over twenty-one may ride

Explanation

The intermediate stage allows passengers but only within the conditions that Manitoba Public Insurance attaches to that stage. These conditions are designed to reduce risk while the rider gains experience. The learner-stage total passenger ban no longer applies once the intermediate stage begins.

Question 10Licensing & ID

What is the purpose of the Manitoba graduated licensing program for motorcycles?

  1. To replace the written knowledge test
  2. To restrict motorcycle ownership to adults
  3. To phase in riding privileges as experience and skill increase Correct answer.
  4. To raise revenue through additional licence fees

Explanation

Graduated licensing introduces privileges in stages so that new riders build experience under lower-risk conditions. Each stage carries restrictions that are removed as the rider demonstrates readiness. The program supplements, rather than replaces, knowledge and road testing.

Question 11Licensing & ID

A Class 6 learner in Manitoba receives a suspension during the learner stage. What is the usual effect on the learner period?

  1. The learner period is extended or restarted according to Manitoba Public Insurance rules Correct answer.
  2. The learner period is shortened
  3. The learner period continues unchanged
  4. The learner is automatically moved to the intermediate stage

Explanation

Suspensions interrupt the clean driving record that the graduated program requires. Manitoba Public Insurance rules extend or restart the stage so that the minimum period is served without violations. A suspension never accelerates progression to a higher stage.

Question 12Licensing & ID

Which test must a Class 6 learner pass before moving to the intermediate stage in Manitoba?

  1. A road test only
  2. A vision test only
  3. The required knowledge and vision testing as set by Manitoba Public Insurance Correct answer.
  4. A knowledge test only

Explanation

Progression from the learner stage requires the testing that Manitoba Public Insurance specifies, which includes knowledge and vision checks. The road test is associated with later progression to the full stage. Riders should confirm current requirements because testing steps can be updated.

Question 13Licensing & ID

Where does a Manitoba Class 6 learner typically obtain the motorcycle knowledge test?

  1. At any Autopac broker or Manitoba Public Insurance service location Correct answer.
  2. Only by mail
  3. Only at a motorcycle dealership
  4. Only at a police station

Explanation

Knowledge testing for the Class 6 learner stage is available through Manitoba Public Insurance service channels, including brokers and service centres. Dealerships and police stations do not administer licensing tests. Applicants should confirm appointment and document requirements in advance.

Question 14Licensing & ID

What does a Class 6 licence authorize a person to operate in Manitoba?

  1. A motorcycle or moped Correct answer.
  2. Any vehicle up to a bus
  3. A taxi carrying passengers for hire
  4. A semi-trailer truck

Explanation

Class 6 is the motorcycle class, covering motorcycles and mopeds within Manitoba's licensing framework. Heavier vehicles such as trucks and buses fall under other classes. Taxis may require additional conditions beyond a basic passenger vehicle licence.

Question 15Licensing & ID

A rider moves to Manitoba with a valid motorcycle licence from another country. What is generally required before a Manitoba Class 6 licence is issued?

  1. A new learner stage in every case
  2. Verification of the licence and completion of any required testing or exchange steps Correct answer.
  3. Only a fee payment
  4. Nothing; the foreign licence converts automatically

Explanation

Manitoba Public Insurance verifies foreign licences and applies exchange or testing rules based on recognized agreements. Some applicants must complete knowledge or road testing, while others may qualify for exchange. Automatic conversion without verification is not available.

Question 16Licensing & ID

What is required of a supervising rider who accompanies a Class 6 learner in Manitoba?

  1. The supervisor must hold a valid full-stage licence and meet the experience requirements Correct answer.
  2. The supervisor may ride on a separate motorcycle behind the learner
  3. The supervisor must be at least twenty-five years old
  4. The supervisor must own the motorcycle being used

Explanation

The supervisor must be properly licensed at the full stage and meet the experience conditions set by Manitoba Public Insurance. Age alone or vehicle ownership does not qualify a person to supervise. The supervisor must be in a position to give direct instruction and control.

Question 17Licensing & ID

Which statement best describes how Manitoba's graduated licensing treats a moped rider?

  1. Mopeds require a Class 1 licence
  2. Mopeds fall within the Class 6 framework and its graduated stages Correct answer.
  3. Mopeds may be ridden only by full licence holders
  4. Mopeds require no licence at all

Explanation

Mopeds are grouped with motorcycles under the Class 6 framework in Manitoba. Riders therefore move through the graduated stages and their restrictions. Operating a moped without the appropriate licence is not permitted.

Question 18Licensing & ID

Why does Manitoba require novice riders to display a stage identifier such as a plate or decal?

  1. To indicate the motorcycle's engine size
  2. To increase registration fees
  3. To identify the rider's home region
  4. To allow other road users and police to recognize the rider's stage of licensing Correct answer.

Explanation

Stage identifiers let police and other road users see that the rider is in a graduated stage. This supports enforcement of stage-specific restrictions such as alcohol and passenger rules. The identifier does not convey engine size, region or fee information.

Question 19Licensing & ID

A Class 6 learner in Manitoba wants to ride at night. Which statement is correct?

  1. Night riding is allowed if the learner is supervised as required Correct answer.
  2. Night riding is allowed only on highways
  3. Night riding requires a special night permit
  4. Night riding is prohibited for learners

Explanation

Manitoba does not impose a general night curfew on Class 6 learners, but supervision and other stage conditions continue to apply. The learner must still ride with a qualified supervisor and obey all restrictions. No separate night permit exists in the graduated program.

Question 20Licensing & ID

What happens to a Manitoba Class 6 licence if the holder accumulates too many demerit points during a stage?

  1. The licence is automatically upgraded
  2. The demerit points expire without effect
  3. The holder must retake only the vision test
  4. The licence may be suspended under Manitoba Public Insurance rules Correct answer.

Explanation

Accumulating demerit points beyond the threshold leads to suspension under Manitoba Public Insurance rules. Novice stages have lower tolerance because the program emphasizes safe habits. A suspension can also affect progression through the graduated stages.

Question 21Licensing & ID

Which item must an applicant provide to show Manitoba residency when applying for a licence?

  1. A letter from a friend confirming the address
  2. A motorcycle purchase receipt
  3. A passport from any country
  4. A document such as a Manitoba health card or lease showing a Manitoba address Correct answer.

Explanation

Manitoba Public Insurance requires documentation that establishes residency, such as a health card or a lease showing a Manitoba address. A passport establishes identity and citizenship but not provincial residency. Purchase receipts and informal letters are not accepted residency proof.

Question 22Licensing & ID

What is the usual consequence for a Class 6 intermediate rider who violates a stage restriction such as the zero alcohol rule?

  1. A suspension and possible extension of the intermediate stage Correct answer.
  2. A warning with no record
  3. A reduction in insurance premiums
  4. Immediate issue of a full licence

Explanation

Violating a stage restriction leads to suspension and can extend the time required in that stage. Manitoba Public Insurance treats novice violations seriously because the restrictions are central to the program. A full licence is never granted as a result of a violation.

Question 23Licensing & ID

Which document should a rider carry when operating a motorcycle in Manitoba?

  1. Only the motorcycle registration
  2. The valid licence and the vehicle registration Correct answer.
  3. A medical certificate
  4. A copy of the rider's birth certificate

Explanation

A rider must carry a valid licence for the class of vehicle and the current registration for the motorcycle. These documents may be requested by police during a traffic stop. A birth certificate or medical certificate does not substitute for them.

Question 24Licensing & ID

What is the minimum holding period before a Manitoba Class 6 intermediate rider may apply for the full stage?

  1. Twelve months Correct answer.
  2. Eighteen months
  3. Thirty-six months
  4. Six months

Explanation

The intermediate stage must be held for at least twelve months before a rider can move to the full stage. The period must be served without suspensions that would extend it. Meeting the time alone is not enough; the rider must also pass the required road test and meet other conditions.

Question 25Licensing & ID

A person's Manitoba licence has been expired for several years. What is generally required to become licensed again?

  1. Reapply and meet current identification, testing and stage requirements as applicable Correct answer.
  2. Wait for the licence to be reinstated automatically
  3. Use an out-of-province licence instead
  4. Simply pay the renewal fee

Explanation

A licence that has been expired for an extended period cannot be renewed by fee alone. The person must reapply and satisfy current identification and testing requirements, which may include graduated stages. Automatic reinstatement does not occur after a long lapse.

Question 26Licensing & ID

In Manitoba, what is the first stage of the graduated licensing program for motorcycles?

  1. Full stage
  2. Learner stage Correct answer.
  3. Intermediate stage
  4. Probationary stage

Explanation

Manitoba's graduated licensing for motorcycles begins with the learner stage, which requires passing the knowledge test and holding a learner permit before any riding on public roads. Riders then advance to the intermediate stage and finally the full stage. The learner stage is the entry point of the three-stage system.

Question 27Licensing & ID

Which document must a Manitoba Class 6 learner carry while riding on a public road?

  1. A motorcycle safety course certificate
  2. The learner licence and required supervision documentation Correct answer.
  3. A copy of the vehicle registration only
  4. A signed parental consent form

Explanation

A learner must carry the valid learner licence while riding, and because a supervising rider is required, documentation confirming proper supervision should be available if requested. Carrying the licence itself is the core legal requirement for any rider. Course certificates and consent forms are not substitute riding documents.

Question 28Licensing & ID

A Manitoba Class 6 learner wants to carry a passenger while practising. Which statement reflects the usual rule?

  1. Passengers are allowed if the passenger is a licensed rider
  2. Passengers are allowed during daylight hours only
  3. Passengers are allowed if the learner is over 18
  4. Passengers are generally not permitted at the learner stage Correct answer.

Explanation

The learner stage is designed for the rider to build basic skills under supervision, so carrying passengers is generally prohibited. Allowing passengers would add distraction and risk before the rider has demonstrated competence. Passenger privileges typically come only at later stages of graduated licensing.

Question 29Licensing & ID

What is the usual minimum age to apply for a Manitoba Class 6 learner licence?

  1. 14 years
  2. 16 years Correct answer.
  3. 18 years
  4. 15 years and six months

Explanation

Manitoba generally requires an applicant to be at least 16 years old to enter the motorcycle graduated licensing program at the learner stage. This aligns the motorcycle program with the standard licensing age for other vehicle classes. Younger applicants must wait until they reach the minimum age.

Question 30Licensing & ID

A Class 6 learner in Manitoba is riding and is stopped by police. Which situation would most likely be treated as a violation of learner conditions?

  1. Riding on a road with a posted speed limit of 50 km/h
  2. Riding during daylight with a supervising rider nearby
  3. Riding a motorcycle that displays a learner identifier
  4. Riding without a qualified supervising rider present Correct answer.

Explanation

A central condition of the learner stage is that the novice rides only while accompanied by a qualified supervising rider. Riding unsupervised defeats the purpose of the learner stage and is treated as a breach of conditions. Daylight riding, proper identification, and ordinary roads are not themselves violations.

Question 31Licensing & ID

Why does Manitoba's graduated licensing system require motorcycle novices to progress through stages rather than licensing them directly?

  1. To ensure riders gain experience gradually in lower-risk conditions Correct answer.
  2. To increase revenue from licence fees
  3. To replace the need for a road test
  4. To limit the number of motorcycles on the road

Explanation

Graduated licensing exposes new riders to riding in stages, adding privileges only as experience and skill grow. This staged approach reduces exposure to higher-risk situations early on. It is a safety framework, not a revenue or traffic-volume measure, and it does not eliminate testing.

Question 32Licensing & ID

A Class 6 learner in Manitoba completes the required learner period and passes the road test. What is the next licensing stage?

  1. Full stage
  2. Intermediate stage Correct answer.
  3. Commercial motorcycle stage
  4. Unrestricted learner stage

Explanation

After the learner stage requirements are met, including the road test, the rider moves to the intermediate stage. The intermediate stage still carries some restrictions before full privileges are granted. The full stage comes only after the intermediate requirements are satisfied.

Question 33Licensing & ID

A Manitoba Class 6 intermediate rider is considering riding after consuming any alcohol. What is the safest and legally correct approach?

  1. Riding is permitted if the rider feels alert
  2. No alcohol should be consumed before riding Correct answer.
  3. Alcohol is acceptable if the rider eats first
  4. One drink is acceptable if under the legal limit

Explanation

Intermediate riders are subject to a zero-alcohol condition, meaning any alcohol in the body is a violation. Even small amounts can impair judgment and riding skill. The only reliable way to comply is to avoid alcohol entirely before riding.

Question 34Licensing & ID

Which action best demonstrates that a Manitoba Class 6 learner is complying with the supervision requirement?

  1. Riding with an experienced licensed motorcycle rider accompanying them Correct answer.
  2. Riding alone while wearing a learner vest
  3. Riding with a passenger who holds a driver's licence
  4. Riding only on quiet residential streets without supervision

Explanation

The learner stage requires that a qualified supervising rider accompany the learner. Supervision means an experienced licensed motorcycle rider is present to oversee the novice. Wearing a vest, carrying a non-rider passenger, or choosing quiet streets does not substitute for required supervision.

Question 35Licensing & ID

A rider holds a Manitoba Class 6 learner licence and moves to another province temporarily. Which statement about the learner licence is most accurate?

  1. It automatically converts to a full licence elsewhere
  2. It remains a Manitoba learner licence with its conditions Correct answer.
  3. It becomes invalid the moment the rider crosses the border
  4. It converts to an intermediate licence in every province

Explanation

A licence issued by Manitoba remains a Manitoba learner licence and carries its conditions, even when the holder rides elsewhere temporarily. Other jurisdictions may apply their own rules to visiting riders, but they do not upgrade the Manitoba licence. Conversion rules vary and are not automatic.

Question 36Licensing & ID

What must a Manitoba Class 6 learner generally do before being allowed to take the motorcycle road test?

  1. Join a motorcycle club
  2. Complete the required learner holding period and meet stage conditions Correct answer.
  3. Purchase additional liability insurance
  4. Own a motorcycle registered in their name

Explanation

Eligibility for the road test depends on completing the required learner holding period and meeting the conditions of the learner stage. Ownership, club membership, and extra insurance are not licensing prerequisites. The focus is on time held and compliance with stage rules.

Question 37Licensing & ID

A Manitoba Class 6 learner receives a suspension for a traffic violation during the learner stage. What is the most likely general consequence?

  1. The rider is immediately promoted to intermediate
  2. The learner period is paused and must be served again after reinstatement Correct answer.
  3. The rider's motorcycle is permanently impounded
  4. The suspension has no effect on the licensing timeline

Explanation

A suspension during the learner stage typically interrupts progress, and the rider must serve the learner period again after reinstatement before advancing. This reinforces that stage conditions must be respected. Promotion and permanent impoundment are not the standard outcomes of a stage suspension.

Question 38Licensing & ID

Which piece of identification is commonly used to prove identity and Manitoba residency when applying for a Class 6 licence?

  1. A library card
  2. A utility bill with no name
  3. A valid Manitoba health card with photo identification Correct answer.
  4. A workplace name badge

Explanation

Applicants generally need to present acceptable identification that establishes both identity and Manitoba residency, such as a valid Manitoba health card combined with photo identification. Library cards, name badges, and unnamed bills do not meet the standard. Proper identification confirms eligibility and residency.

Question 39Licensing & ID

A Manitoba Class 6 intermediate rider is caught violating a stage restriction. Which outcome is most consistent with graduated licensing principles?

  1. The rider is automatically granted full privileges
  2. The rider is excused because the intermediate stage is flexible
  3. The violation is recorded but has no licensing effect
  4. The rider may face sanctions such as suspension or extended stage time Correct answer.

Explanation

Graduated licensing ties privileges to compliance, so breaching a stage restriction can lead to sanctions like suspension or a longer stage. These consequences protect the public and encourage responsible riding. Automatic promotion or a purely record-only outcome would undermine the system.

Question 40Licensing & ID

What does a Manitoba Class 6 licence, once fully earned, authorize the holder to operate?

  1. A motorcycle on public roads Correct answer.
  2. Only off-road motorcycles
  3. Only mopeds and bicycles
  4. Any motor vehicle including commercial trucks

Explanation

A Class 6 licence authorizes operation of a motorcycle on public roads once the graduated stages are complete. It does not cover commercial trucks, which require a different class, nor does it license bicycles. Off-road-only use is not what the class is designed to authorize.

Question 41Registration

Under Manitoba law, within how many days must a newly purchased vehicle be registered after the buyer takes possession?

  1. 7 days Correct answer.
  2. 60 days
  3. 14 days
  4. 30 days

Explanation

Manitoba requires a vehicle to be registered within 7 days of the owner taking possession. Driving an unregistered vehicle beyond that window exposes the owner to fines and possible impoundment. The registration ties the plate and insurance to the vehicle record.

Question 42Registration

What must a Manitoba vehicle owner present to register a vehicle that was purchased from a private seller?

  1. A bank statement showing payment
  2. A bill of sale signed by the seller Correct answer.
  3. A safety inspection certificate only
  4. A letter from the seller's insurance company

Explanation

A private sale requires a signed bill of sale showing the seller, buyer, purchase price and vehicle details. Manitoba uses this document to confirm ownership transfer and to calculate applicable fees and taxes. The buyer then registers the vehicle in their own name.

Question 43Registration

A Manitoba resident moves to a new address and owns a registered vehicle. What is required regarding the vehicle registration record?

  1. Surrender the plates and apply for new ones
  2. Update the address on the registration within a set period Correct answer.
  3. Re-register the vehicle as a new purchase
  4. Nothing until the next annual renewal

Explanation

Manitoba requires registered owners to keep their address current with the vehicle registration authority. Address updates must be made within a specified period after moving. Failing to update can mean renewal notices and official documents go to the wrong address.

Question 44Registration

Which document proves that a vehicle has valid mandatory automobile insurance in Manitoba?

  1. A valid insurance card showing the policy Correct answer.
  2. A driver's licence
  3. A property tax receipt
  4. A vehicle safety certificate

Explanation

Manitoba requires proof of valid mandatory insurance to register and operate a vehicle. The insurance card lists the policy number, insured vehicle and coverage period. Registration cannot be completed without this proof.

Question 45Registration

In Manitoba, what does a vehicle registration permit an owner to do?

  1. Park in restricted zones
  2. Drive without a licence
  3. Operate the vehicle on public roads Correct answer.
  4. Transfer ownership freely without paperwork

Explanation

Registration is the legal authorization to operate a vehicle on public roads. It links the vehicle to an owner and to valid insurance. Registration does not replace a driver's licence or grant parking privileges.

Question 46Registration

What happens to a Manitoba vehicle registration when the owner sells the vehicle?

  1. It remains valid on the seller's other vehicles
  2. It renews automatically for the buyer
  3. It transfers automatically to the buyer
  4. It should be cancelled or the plates removed Correct answer.

Explanation

When a vehicle is sold, the seller should cancel the registration or remove and retain the plates. Leaving plates on the vehicle can make the seller liable for the buyer's use. The buyer must then register the vehicle in their own name.

Question 47Registration

Which of the following is a valid reason Manitoba may refuse to register a vehicle?

  1. The vehicle was bought in another province
  2. The vehicle has a different colour than advertised
  3. The owner has a clean driving record
  4. The owner has an outstanding fine or unpaid fee Correct answer.

Explanation

Manitoba can refuse registration when there are unpaid fines, fees or other outstanding obligations tied to the applicant. Registration requires the applicant to be in good standing. Colour, origin of purchase or a clean record do not bar registration.

Question 48Registration

A Manitoba vehicle owner wants to renew an expiring registration. What is generally required?

  1. A new driver's licence photograph
  2. Payment of renewal fees and valid insurance Correct answer.
  3. Written permission from the previous owner
  4. A new safety inspection every year

Explanation

Renewal requires paying the applicable fees and maintaining valid mandatory insurance. Manitoba sends renewal notices before expiry so coverage does not lapse. Annual safety inspections are not a universal renewal requirement.

Question 49Registration

A Manitoba driver buys a used car privately on a Saturday and drives it home using the seller's plates. What is the correct next step?

  1. Wait for the seller to cancel the plates before registering
  2. Keep the seller's plates until renewal
  3. Use the seller's insurance indefinitely
  4. Register the vehicle in the buyer's name and obtain plates Correct answer.

Explanation

The buyer must register the vehicle in their own name and obtain plates and insurance. Driving on the seller's plates leaves the buyer uninsured and improperly registered. The seller should cancel their registration once the sale is complete.

Question 50Registration

A Manitoba vehicle owner lets their insurance lapse but keeps driving. What is the likely consequence regarding registration?

  1. Registration may be suspended and the vehicle cannot be legally driven Correct answer.
  2. The vehicle is automatically registered to another owner
  3. Only a warning is issued once
  4. Registration remains valid indefinitely

Explanation

Valid mandatory insurance is a condition of registration in Manitoba. If coverage lapses, the registration may be suspended and driving becomes illegal. The owner must restore insurance and resolve the suspension before driving again.
