加州摩托车DMV考试以及题目作者： 程迁乔 摩托车驾照考试规则：

摩托车考试有年龄方面的，只要你过了21周岁就不用担心（21岁以下想得到正式驾照必须持有临时驾照6个月才能转为正式驾照，摩托车正常驾照为M1，M2只能开小绵羊，不能上高速）

1.你首先要过了汽车的笔试才能考摩托车驾照，摩托车笔试题目没有中文。

2.总共有3个TEST每次考试从中抽取一个TEST考，每个TEST有25题，错4题以上失败得重新考

3.不同城市要求不一定一样，有的城市必须要你先上完Motorcycle Training课程中的Basic Rider Course才让你考摩托车的笔试。（课程必须要有CMSP-California Motorcyclist Safety Program认证）.ca-msp.org/上完Basic Rider Course可以得到DL3，豁免摩托车DMV的路考，并且有可能得到保险公司的reduce rate. 课程花费按各个不同学校标准收取，21岁以上价格和以下的不同。(Basic Rider Course有三节课，第一节室课，后面两节场地课，全英文授课，室课程有关摩托车的具体操作，结束后会有个考试，50题笔试错10题不过，场地课会也有，关于骑行技巧的上车操作。两门课都必须达到要求才能授予DL3!得到DL3过了笔试，去DMV直接换取正式驾照)

4.DMV路考和汽车路考预约差不多，但是考试方法场地不一样.
