The DL 389 is valid for 12 months from the issue date. The motorcycle skills test is conducted in either an actual traffic environment or in a controlled off-street area. Knowledge test questions are based on information in this handbook and the California Driver Handbook. You will be required to pass the driver knowledge test, motorcycle knowledge test, knowledge test(s) for any other license class(es) requested, and pass a motorcycle skills test or obtain a Certificate of Completion of Motorcycle Training (DL 389) as defined in the California Motorcyclist Safety Program Training Course section. To obtain your DL, refer to the Requirements for a Motorcycle M1 or M2 License section (see page 5). You may apply for a Class M1 or M2 DL at any DMV field office which provides DL services.
DMV’s licensing tests are designed to be scored objectively. Testing two-wheel vehicle operators is the best measurement of the skills necessary to operate safely in traffic because people often overestimate their own abilities. Safe riding requires knowledge and skill.
