Motorcycle Manual in Utah
Motorcycle riders know that operating a motorcycle in traffic is very different from driving a car, and it takes special knowledge and skills. To help motorcycle riders share the roads safely with cars and reduce the risk of a crash, the Motorcycle Safety Foundation has published the Motorcycle Operator Manual. The manual was written primarily for novice riders, but the information is helpful for riders of any skill level.
Topics include: wearing the right gear, knowing your motorcycle, knowing your responsibilities, basic vehicle control, keeping your distance, seeing what's happening around you, handling intersections, making yourself seen, avoiding crashes, handling dangerous surfaces, mechanical problems, animals, flying objects, getting off the road, carrying passengers and cargo, group riding, alcohol and drugs, fatigue, and earning your license.
The handbook is available for download in PDF format. You'll need the free Adobe Reader to access PDF documents, available as a quick download.
