Compared to four-wheeled vehicles, what is the main defining characteristic of two-wheeled vehicles?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is that they are less stable. Having only two points of contact (the wheels), balance is not inherent to the vehicle when stopped or at very low speeds; it relies entirely on the driver's skill and movement (dynamic balance).  Analysis of other options: They are not less fragile; on the contrary, they are more fragile and vulnerable because the driver's body often acts as the 'chassis' absorbing the impact. They are not more visible; on the contrary, due to their narrower profile (smaller volume), they are less visible and can easily disappear into other vehicles' blind spots.
