Is stalling allowed in the motorcycle test?
2 Answers
No, during the motorcycle Category 2 test, you must not touch poles, stall the engine, or put your feet on the ground, otherwise you will fail the test. Requirements for applying for a motorcycle license: The application requirements for an F-class license are relatively simple compared to other licenses. You only need to meet the legal age limit (18 years or older and under 60 years old), be in good health, and meet the requirements to apply. Motorcycle license test items: The motorcycle license test consists of a theoretical test and practical operation tests in three categories: the subject of road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge; the subject of field driving skills; and the subject of road driving skills and safe, civilized driving knowledge.
Occasional stalling during the motorcycle test is acceptable. I remember during my own test, I was so nervous that I accidentally stalled once, but the examiner didn’t fail me outright—just deducted some points, around 5 or so. Stalling is a common mistake for beginners, especially when starting or at low speeds due to poor coordination between the clutch and throttle. The test mainly evaluates overall operation and safety awareness, such as smooth gear shifting and obeying traffic signals. The key is not to stall repeatedly or create safety hazards, like suddenly stopping in the middle of the road. Practicing starts and stops in an empty area regularly can improve control and make you steadier during the test. In short, minor mistakes won’t ruin your chances, but try to stay calm and avoid too many point deductions.
