So you want to ride motorcycles in New Jersey? There’s much to learn, but you have the best resources available to you from the beginning. As soon as you start the learning phase, you’re building the foundation of a lifelong skill. Riding a motorcycle can be thrilling, and it’s easy to get lost in this newfound freedom. However, you must always ride responsibly and follow local laws. In New Jersey, all riders and their passengers must wear helmets. The practice of lane-splitting is illegal in the Garden State, where safety is an important priority.

The New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission (MVC) publishes a driver manual that includes a separate chapter for motorcycle operation (New Jersey Motorcycle Manual). Aspiring riders should read this manual at least once to familiarize themselves with blind spots, dangerous surfaces, basic vehicle controls, and carrying passengers. Give our New Jersey MVC motorcycle permit practice tests a try before you go to the MVC location to take the official exam. This intuitive tool has been designed to make studying easier even for those who struggle to understand the various aspects of riding theory. Each practice test consists of 30 multiple-choice questions. Only one answer is correct, so you shouldn’t guess randomly.
