did anyone notice that she is NOT using the front brake at all?!
so! perhaps you wheel your bike on a gradient like this..what then?
In N.I. we teach manoeuvring the bike using the handlebars and NOT the handlebar and pillion grabrail for this exact reason..should the bike run away from you, you have control over it to stop it!
try stopping a free-wheeling goldwing using your upper body strength alone...
there's a reason why bikes have two discs at the front.
@learn2rideVIDEOS I noticed that she is NOT using the front brake, but as she is doing her test on an automatic means she can only ride an auto so she will always have a brake on both sides. I'm sure she would have to have her hand on the brake side if she was taking a geared machine test....
You'd be suprised what mistakes people make on this! One guy did this and didnt put the side stand on properly, he turned round to the examiner and it fell over snapping the break leaver off making the bike not useable!
What the hell? take it off the stand and wheel it round a corner? I thought this was a test for motorcycles not push bikes? Can you use the kickstand? You're a bit stuck otherwise aren't you?
