The PEI Motorcycle Stage 2 License

As part of the Prince Edward Island graduated motorcycle license program, you become eligible for a PEI motorcycle Stage 2 license after completing the required time with a PEI motorcycle learners license. In order to actually move to the PEI Motorcycle Stage 2 License level, you will need to pass a motorcycle road test that ensures you are comfortable handling a motorcycle in any road situation and can drive independently in a safe manner. Don't forget, anytime you drive a motorcycle, you must have the appropriate PEI motorcycle insurance in place, as well as registration documents for the bike you are operating.
