ChatGPT zei:

No / Yes.
No, Motorcycle Highschool does not offer accelerated courses.
However, there are driving schools that do offer fast-track options allowing you to obtain your motorcycle license in a short period of time.
Keep in mind though that such training is very intensive.
Our experience shows that with a fast-track course, you have less time to properly absorb and review the material, which can negatively affect your chances of passing.

6 Can i drive a scooter with my motor license?

Met een motorrijbewijs (categorie A1, A2 of A) mag je ook een motorscooter besturen die binnen de vermogensgrenzen van jouw rijbewijs valt.
Een motorscooter valt namelijk onder dezelfde rijbewijscategorieën als een motorfiets.
Let er wel op dat het vermogen van de motorscooter overeenkomt met jouw rijbewijs (bijvoorbeeld max. 11 kW voor A1).

7. What is the school's pass rate?

The pass rates per category can be found on the CBR website.
Compare driving schools based on their pass rates and choose one with a high success rate.

 

 

 

 
Vraag ChatGPT
8. Is it possible to take a trial lesson before I sign up?

Yes, at Motorcycle Highschool you can take a no-obligation trial lesson.
During this lesson, you’ll get to know the instructor and the motorcycle, and receive an estimate of the number of lessons you may need.

9. What motorcycle gear do I need for the lessons and the exam?

You are required to wear protective motorcycle gear: a helmet, motorcycle jacket, motorcycle pants, gloves, and sturdy shoes or boots.
Since the COVID-19 pandemic, more and more students choose to purchase their own gear, as it's not always comfortable to wear clothing previously used by others.
When you sign up, you’ll receive a discount voucher for motorcycle gear.

10. Can I get my motorcycle license without having a car license?

Yes, you can obtain a motorcycle license without first having a car license. However, you must be at least 17 years old and hold a valid motorcycle theory certificate (Category A) to start your motorcycle lessons.

11. Can I obtain my motorcycle license with a foreign driving license?

Yes, this is possible, but there are exceptions.
If you’ve been living in the Netherlands for more than 185 days and are officially registered, you must have a valid Dutch driving license.
Note: if you don’t exchange your foreign license, you may be driving uninsured in the Netherlands — which is a criminal offense.

12 I already have an A2 motorcycle license. Can I get my full A license at Motorcycle Highschool?

Yes, that's possible. If you hold an A2 license, you can upgrade to a full A (unrestricted) license with us. We offer a tailored training program for this purpose. You'll receive specific advice after taking an assessment lesson, where we evaluate your current riding skills.

13 I’ve had a motorcycle license for years and want to start riding again or improve my riding skills. Is that possible?

Absolutely! Motorcycle Highschool offers specialized training courses for returning riders as well as experienced motorcyclists who want to enhance their skills. These training sessions are available both in the Netherlands and abroad.
