Add Motorcycle Endorsement/Testing


If you are interested in adding a motorcycle (M) endorsement to your Utah license you will need to take a 25-question motorcycle written knowledge test (scores are good for one year.)  Study this handbook to prepare.  Once passed, you will be issued a motorcycle learner permit that allows you to operate your vehicle and any size motorcycle.

Step 1: Schedule an appointment to take your motorcycle written knowledge test:

  • If your license expires in the next six (6) months you will renew your license.
  • If your license does not expire within the next six (6) months you will apply for a replacement.
  • If this is your first time Utah license you will apply for an original.

Step 2: Once you have your motorcycle learner permit you will need to complete the motorcycle driving skills test and you have two (2) options:

  • Option 1: Take the driving skills test with the Driver License Division – schedule an appointment.
  • Option 2: You can take a Motorcycle Safety Foundation Beginning Rider Course (BRC.)  Once the course has been completed, you will be given a completion card to bring with you when applying for the motorcycle endorsement.  This card waives the driving skills test portion at the Driver License Division.  Visit the Motorcycle Course page for more information.

When you appear for your appointment at the Driver License Division you will need to bring your current Utah driver license and submit a nonrefundable fee for a renewal or replacement driver license plus the motorcycle endorsement fee of $18.00.
