I know quite a bit about driver's licenses. The Class E license is mainly for motorcycles, allowing you to ride ordinary two-wheeled motorcycles like street bikes and scooters. However, it doesn't mean you can ride all types of motorcycles. For instance, three-wheeled motorcycles or heavy motorcycles require a higher-level Class D license. I remember helping a friend look it up last year—riding without a license is very dangerous. If caught by the police, you'll face immediate points deduction and fines. When riding a motorcycle, always wear a helmet, follow traffic rules, and control your speed—no reckless speeding. Regular engine maintenance is also crucial, like changing the oil on time, to ensure smooth and safe rides. In short, driving with a valid license is fundamental. If you're unsure, ask your local traffic department promptly.
