Thanks everyone. I managed to regain my composure this morning and breezed through with 34 out of 35. Phew!

I asked about the joint test thing. The rules say that if you take a car and bike test together, you have to pass BOTH parts before they can issue your licence. I guess the smart thing would be to take one, get your licence, then go back to do the other....

I do take issue with the question I got wrong though. It said As a motorcyclist, what should you do to make yourself more visible to other road users?. The options were:

A. Ride with your headlamp on.
B. Wear a helmet and brightly coloured clothing.
C. Ride in the centre of the road.
D. Stand on your footpegs.


I chose A because I always ride with my lights on (I used to own a Volvo!).
I didn't choose B because you wear a helmet to protect your head in a crash, not because it helps other drivers see you.

Turns out I was wrong. The correct answer was B. Strongly worded letter in post to LTNZ today!
