As of August 26, 2016, Oklahoma law requires people 17 or younger who are seeking an original or renewed driver license with an M (motorcycle) endorsement to complete a certified Motorcycle Safety Foundation (MSF) training course before applying.

Basic RiderCourse
Ability to ride a bicycle is required. Full protective attire is required and provided at most course locations. Must be of legal age to operate a motorcycle on the street.

The Basic RiderCourse is a complete entry-level, learn-to-ride class that consists of at least 15 hours of formal classroom activities and on-cycle riding exercises conducted over two or three days. About five hours are devoted to learning activities in the classroom, and around 10 hours of hands-on practice are included. Training motorcycles are provided. Successful completion may result in an insurance discount.

Motorcycle Safety Campaign
During the Summer of 2018, the Oklahoma Highway Safety Office and OkieMoto launched the "Road Science" public safety campaign. This campaign focused on educating vehicle drivers to several dangers that motorcycle riders face that the drivers may not think about. With a scientific approach, including physics equations and graphics, the campaign aimed to inform drivers of these dangers, and encourage motorcycle riders to be extra vigilant when riding.

The "Road Science" campaign will continue with new elements in May 2019.
