Mississippi offers a motorcycle manual available for $1 at your local driver's license office. You can also download a free copy online using Adobe Reader.

The manual provides a wealth of information on the following topics:

• Wearing the right gear

• Knowing your motorcycle

• Basic vehicle control

• Intersections

• Signals, mirrors, and lights

• Crash avoidance

• Handling dangerous services

• Animals

• Flying objects

• Carrying passengers and cargo

• Earning your license

And if you flip to the back of the manual, you'll find a slew of sample questions taken from the knowledge (or written) test to help you practice for the big day.

Helmets

Mississippi does enforce a helmet law. The manual provides useful information about selecting a helmet, and the Motorcycle Safety Foundation provides additional resources for safety and training.
