Just passed the written Massachusetts Motorcycle Test
now, you would THINK that the questions would revolve around MOTORCYCLES.

well, you would be wrong

its apparently MUCH more important to know whether or not it is ILLEGAL to toss a lit cigarette but out of the window of a vehicle.

its apparently also MUCH more important to know whether or not the state will renew your license if you have TWO or MORE citations for vehicle ABANDONMENT :eyes:

oh well, i passed. Honda Scooter, HERE I COME BABY! :bounce:

6. Matt, I hate to be a worry-wort...
Edited on Fri Sep-09-05 11:53 AM by VelmaD
but promise me you'll be careful. People in cars have no consideration for people on motorcycles and I'd hate for anything to happen to you.

15. I don't think it's a lack of consideration
Too many times I've seen motorcycles where they shouldn't be.... riding side-by-side, in-between the lanes of cars, in the breakdown lane, etc.

Here in MA they have bumper stickers that say, "Look twice: motorcycles are everywhere" and I always want to add "except for where they're supposed to be"

12. Hey, I just passed the Missouri motorcycle test, written part
I'm also getting a scooter, tommorrow, but it isn't a Honda, it is Bajaj Chetak. Fifty five mph, 100-110 mpg, and tens of millions of Indian can't be wrong. I can hardly wait. It will drop my gas bill considerably.

Congratulations on passing your test. At least here in Missouri they do test you on matters concerning motorbikes.
