S Smith said:Maybe it is not the curriculum as much as the administration of the program. Maybe the emphasis when training is run by private contractors (rather than state run) is more about the $$ than training.
Absolutely agree!!BlueZX10R said:If only the same level of training was required to operate car. If the comparison is being made with European statistics, it seems like having that level of instruction and testing for any motor vehicle license would be a good idea.
2linby said:Lee Parks is a solid organization and Stacy Axmaker from the Idaho Star Program is a solid administrator who will see this program through and I hope for the sake of the new riders in California they find great success.
The Wizard said:My son and I both took the MSF Riding Course,and my son learned well.I'm not sure about the training questions,tired license works elsewhere but possible it would help if the motorcycle industry was made to stop selling these first time riders these 100 hp+ sport bikes.Maybe tiered motorcycle buying. You can get them trained,but unlike cars they don't give a training permit with specifics about size etc. The Wizard
