What are the road traffic regulations for motorcycles?
2 Answers
Below are the road traffic regulations for motorcycles: 1. On roads with three or more motor vehicle lanes in the same direction: The leftmost lane is only permitted for small passenger vehicles allowed by traffic signs. 2. On roads with two or more motor vehicle lanes in the same direction: Motorcycles, electric bicycles, tractors, etc., are only permitted to drive in the rightmost lane. 3. All types of vehicles should drive in designated lanes: Other motor vehicles are prohibited from driving or parking in public transport dedicated lanes. Those needing to cross a public transport dedicated lane to turn may borrow the lane within a distance of 30 meters, provided it does not affect the dedicated lane's traffic. In special circumstances under traffic control, vehicles may use public transport dedicated lanes as directed by traffic police or traffic signs.
I've been riding motorcycles for almost ten years, and the key to road regulations is safety first. Wearing a helmet is a must—I always make it a habit to check and fasten the strap properly because it can save lives. Speed control is crucial: don’t exceed 40 km/h in urban areas and 80 km/h on highways, or accidents become more likely. Stopping at red lights and going at green is fundamental, and always use turn signals when changing lanes to alert others. Extra caution is needed on rainy days due to higher slipping risks. Maintain a safe distance while riding—at least two car lengths. Also, avoid overloading as it affects balance, and regularly check brakes and lights. Following these rules ensures a smooth and safe journey.
