It is a traffic violation for three people to ride on a motorcycle. Motorcycles are classified as motor vehicles: If the technical specifications (such as design speed, weight, and power) meet the standards for mopeds or regular motorcycles, they will be adjudicated according to the relevant motor vehicle standards during enforcement. Do not exceed the approved passenger capacity: Motor vehicles must not carry more passengers than the approved capacity. The rear seat cannot carry children under 12 years old, and passengers on two-wheeled motorcycles must wear safety helmets. When carrying passengers, they must sit facing the direction of travel on the rear seat and are not allowed to sit sideways. No other part of the motorcycle is allowed to carry passengers, and the rear seat can only accommodate one additional person.
