Module 1 – The Specified Off Road Manoeuvres Test

This module is conducted off road at one of the local Multi Purpose Test Centres and consists of several manoeuvres executed at specific speeds. It takes approximately 22 minutes to complete Module 1.

You will be asked to ride

  • 2 slow speed exercises (i.e. Slalom, Figure 8) and a U-turn in a 7.5m wide marked area
  • 2 higher speed exercises, of which one exercise should be in second or third gear, at a speed of at least 30 km/h (approx. 19 mph) and one exercise avoiding an obstacle at a minimum speed of 50 km/h (approx. 32 mph)
  • 2 braking manoeuvres, including an emergency brake at a minimum speed of 50 km/h (approx. 32 mph)

You will also be asked questions about your machine, riding with passengers and balancing.

Those candidates who have demonstrated riding skills of a dangerously incompetent level during Module 1 will not be permitted to take Module 2 before Module 1 has been successfully re-taken.

Those candidates who have passed Module 1 will receive a Test Pass Certificate which they must bring with them when they take Module 2.
