Some specific rules apply to motorcycles. For example, lane splitting (riding between lanes of traffic) is illegal in Quebec. Motorcyclists must also use their headlights at all times, even during the day, and are not permitted to carry passengers until they have held their driver’s license for at least two years. Additionally, motorcyclists are required to wear a helmet that meets Canadian safety standards and must ensure that their motorcycle is equipped with functional brakes, mirrors, and turn signals. Failure to follow these rules can result in fines, loss of license, or even imprisonment. Overall, motorcyclists must be aware of and adhere to all traffic rules to ensure their safety and avoid legal consequences.
