- 16 yrs.
- Age is of no significance.
Why this is the answer
The correct answer in the official bank: 18 yrs.
A motorcycle rider may carry a passenger only from age 18, even if they got a motorcycle licence at a younger age. A passenger adds weight, changes the bike's balance and lengthens braking distance, so more maturity and experience are needed. Ages 16 or 17.5 are not enough, and the age limit does matter.
