Missouri motorcycle rules to know

  • Without a rider course waiver, Missouri's motorcycle endorsement requires four things: the motorcycle written test, a vision examination, a road sign recognition test and a riding skills test on a motorcycle or motortricycle. Together they check that you know the rules, can see well, and can actually control the machine. An approved Missouri rider training course can replace the written and skills tests. Missouri Motorcycle Operator Manual (Form 2332), page 57
  • If you have no valid driver license, Missouri makes you pass the regular operator's written test as well as the motorcycle written test. The operator's test covers the general rules of the road that every motorcyclist shares with car drivers. Missouri Motorcycle Operator Manual (Form 2332), page 57
  • Missouri drivers may hold only one valid permit at a time. If you already have a current operator or commercial permit, the motorcycle endorsement is added to that permit instead of issuing a separate one. Any earlier permit becomes invalid when a new permit is issued. Missouri Motorcycle Operator Manual (Form 2332), page 57
  • The Missouri motorcycle skills test is given by the Missouri State Highway Patrol and consists of four riding exercises. They measure vehicle control and how you respond to hazards. The same test is used for two-wheel and three-wheel motorcycles. Missouri Motorcycle Operator Manual (Form 2332), page 57
  • The final two exercises of Missouri's skills test, the quick stop and the obstacle swerve, are ridden at about 15 miles per hour. You are scored on time and distance standards and on staying inside the marked path. Missouri Motorcycle Operator Manual (Form 2332), page 57
  • The Missouri skills test runs in this order: a sharp left turn and normal stop, then a cone weave and right turn from a stop, then a quick stop, and finally an obstacle swerve. The swerve checks that you can steer quickly around a hazard while keeping control. Missouri Motorcycle Operator Manual (Form 2332), page 57
