Which of the following three documents are required for motorcycle riders in Ontario?
- Vehicle ownership document, passport, and insurance liability card
- Valid driver's licence, birth certificate, and passport
- Birth certificate, marriage certificate, and valid driver's licence
- Insurance liability card, valid driver's licence, and vehicle ownership document ✓
Answer: D. Insurance liability card, valid driver's licence, and vehicle ownership document
You must carry an insurance liability card, a valid driver's licence, and the vehicle ownership document when riding a motorcycle in Ontario.
Why this is the answer
The handbook says that to ride a motorcycle in Ontario you need a valid motorcycle licence, valid vehicle registration and liability insurance, and you must carry your driver’s licence, vehicle registration and insurance card for police. The answer lists those same three things: insurance liability card, driver’s licence and vehicle ownership document. Ownership document stands for the vehicle registration. Passport, birth certificate and marriage certificate are not part of this carry requirement.
Why the other answers are wrong
- A. Vehicle ownership document, passport, and insurance liability card — A passport is not one of the documents the handbook tells you to carry, and this choice leaves out the valid driver's licence.
- B. Valid driver's licence, birth certificate, and passport — A birth certificate and passport are not the required carry documents, and this choice omits the vehicle ownership document and insurance liability card.
- C. Birth certificate, marriage certificate, and valid driver's licence — A birth certificate and marriage certificate are not required carry documents, and this choice leaves out the ownership document and insurance card.
Remember it
Think of the three things you would hand over: your licence, the bike's ownership, and the pink insurance slip.
