Will the Motorcycle Test Still Be Conducted in the Rain?
2 Answers
As long as the staff are working normally, the test will proceed regardless of rain. Below are the relevant details: 1. The content of the Subject 1 test includes: road traffic rules, traffic signals, handling of traffic safety violations and accidents, regulations on the application and use of motor vehicle driving licenses, motor vehicle registration, and other road traffic safety laws, regulations, and rules. 2. The content of the Subject 2 test includes: pile test for three-wheeled vehicles, ordinary three-wheeled motorcycles, ordinary two-wheeled motorcycles, and light motorcycles; stopping and starting on a slope; and crossing a single-plank bridge. 3. The content of the Subject 3 safe and civilized driving knowledge test includes: requirements for safe and civilized driving operations, safe driving knowledge under adverse weather and complex road conditions, emergency handling methods for situations such as tire blowouts, and knowledge on handling traffic accidents.
I remember when I took my motorcycle license test, it was also raining, but the test proceeded as scheduled. The testing center usually sticks to the plan unless the weather is extremely bad, such as heavy rain, thunderstorms, or flooded roads, in which case they might cancel. Safety always comes first, and the examiners will assess the actual conditions before making a decision. So, I’d advise you to prepare in advance: bring extra rain gear and check the testing center’s official website or call to confirm if there are any last-minute changes. Riding in the rain is indeed more dangerous—slippery roads, poor visibility, and beginners tend to get more nervous. But the test itself simulates various scenarios, so mastering the skills is crucial. If the test is canceled due to heavy rain, don’t be discouraged; just reschedule for the next available slot. In any case, don’t slack off on training because of the rain—practicing braking and turning control is key.
