Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

Yes, the answer is affirmative. According to Traffic Law, an automobile is defined as any motor vehicle normally used for the transport of persons or goods, or for traction of other vehicles for that purpose. This definition encompasses passenger cars, trucks, buses, and of course, motorcycles. It is important not to confuse the generic term 'automobile' with the specific 'passenger car' (turismo). Technically, a motorcycle is a two-wheeled automobile. Important note for the exam: mopeds are NOT considered automobiles.
