Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The General Traffic Regulations establish strict rules for the safe carriage of people. A motorcycle passenger must always sit behind the rider (never in front) and in the position called 'astride', that is, with one leg on each side of the vehicle. In addition, the passenger must keep their feet on the side footrests designed for that purpose. This rule applies at all times and on any type of road (urban or interurban) to ensure the stability of the vehicle and prevent falls.
