Currently, one-fifth of China's provinces and municipalities, including Beijing, Liaoning, Hubei, Hainan, Guizhou, Xinjiang, and Yunnan, have opened their highways to motorcycles. Here are some precautions for riding motorcycles: Wear a helmet: When riding a motorcycle, it is essential to wear a helmet. Due to the unique nature of motorcycle riding, wearing a helmet is necessary to prevent dangers and ensure personal safety. It is recommended that riders purchase high-quality helmets to guarantee riding safety. Lights: Motorcycle lights are also crucial. Before riding, check the motorcycle's lights, and use them appropriately during the ride to ensure the rider's safety. Brakes: Motorcycle brakes determine the rider's safety. Before each trip, inspect the brake cables for any abnormalities.

I've been riding motorcycles for several years and have traveled to many places. In mainland China, most highways don't allow motorcycles, and in places like Guangdong and Shanghai, you can't even enter the on-ramps as the police will stop you. However, there are some exceptions. For example, highways in Taiwan Province do allow motorcycles, but the different rules are often overlooked. I've personally ridden on some highways near the Yunnan border without being checked, but you must ensure all your documents are in order. Before each trip, I check the local transportation authority's official website or ask local motorcycle groups because they know the actual situation. Safety is crucial; on highways, the high speeds and strong wind resistance make motorcycles less stable and prone to accidents. So now, I prioritize national and provincial roads—they're safer and offer better scenery. Planning your route carefully is essential to avoid wasted trips.
