Whilst mopeds, scooters and motorcycles represent for many now and increasingly in the future, an ideal personal mobility solution, safety concerns have created negative perceptions. 

The MCI is at the forefront of calls to improve the safety of riders through changes in policy, road infrastructure, clothing protection, rider attitude and raising the awareness of other road users. 

Motorcycle training and testing plays a vital, integral part in developing safer riders. The MCI and MCITA (the Association for Motorcycle Trainers) has played a key role in the challenges made to the Government and its agencies over the failings of the current testing regime which was introduced in response to European legislation (2DLD).  This MCI gave evidence at a Transport Select Committee Inquiry into the test implementation and has been a key advisor to the DSA and DfT in its subsequent Review of the testing system.  

As part of the Review some manoeuvres have been revised to improve safety and further changes are currently being tested and trialled.

The MCI is a strong advocate of progressive learning and post test training, it works closely with BikeSafe providing their National Booking Service.
