Free M1 Motorcycle Licence Practice Test (Ontario) 2025

Ontario has implemented a Graduated Licensing System (GLS) for aspiring motorcyclists as well as aspiring car drivers. Aspiring motorcyclists must pass the M1 knowledge test, which evaluates their knowledge of road signs, rules of the road, and motorcycle-specific information, such as motorcycle handling techniques and motorcycle helmets. Passing the M1 test is a crucial requirement for obtaining an M1 operator’s licence (commonly considered a “motorcycle learner’s permit”). Your M1 licence will allow you to practise motorcycle riding from ½ hour before sunrise to ½ hour after sunset, but not with a passenger and not on most roads with speed limits over 80 km/h. This free M1 motorcycle licence practice test will help you pass in Ontario.You must be 16 years old and pay the Class M1 licence package fee ($78.75) to take the M1 knowledge test.The M1 test consists of 64 multiple-choice questions divided into three sections: 20 questions on road signs, 20 questions on rules of the road, and 24 questions on motorcycle-specific issues. The test is based on the latest versions of the Official Ontario Ministry of Transportation (MTO) Driver’s Handbook (for road signs and rules of the road) and the Official Ontario Ministry of Transportation (MTO) Motorcycle Handbook (for motorcycle-specific topics). To pass the written knowledge test, you must score at least 80% on each section. If you fail any of the three sections, you fail the entire M1 knowledge test. However, if you retake the test within a year, you will only have to retake the sections that you failed (and pay a retest fee of $16.00).Our tools complement and work with the Handbooks to ensure you’ll pass the M1 test on your first try. This is the first of our M1 Practice Tests. It’s up to date as of March 2025 and based on the official handbooks, just like the official M1 knowledge test.Watch the Progress Grid to track the questions you get right or wrong. If you get stuck on a question, ask our AI Assistant to give you a hint or discuss the question in more depth. You can also ask your own questions about any aspect of motorcycling. If you still miss the question, its number in the Progress Grid will turn red, and the AI Assistant will immediately give you the correct answer and an explanation.Note: The fee amounts cited here are as of February 2025 and are subject to change. The current fees are listed on this DriveTest webpage.
