Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What type of endorsement do I need to operate a motorcycle legally in Oklahoma?
A: To be licensed to operate a motorcycle or motor-driven cycle in Oklahoma, you need an "M" endorsement on your Oklahoma Driver License. To acquire this endorsement, you must appear before a Driver License Examiner, present the required documentation and take a vision, written and drive test exam. If you have completed a Motorcycle Safety Foundation (MSF) course, the drive test will be waived.
