The Arkansas DFA motorcycle knowledge test has 25 multiple-choice questions. You need to answer at least 20 correctly (80%) to pass. Questions are drawn from the Arkansas Motorcycle Operator Manual.

Arkansas repealed its universal helmet law in 1997. Under Arkansas Code §27-20-104, only riders and passengers under 21 must wear protective headgear. Riders 21+ may legally ride without one. A study of Arkansas trauma data found that non-helmeted deaths, severe head/neck injuries, and medical costs increased substantially after the repeal.

Yes. Unlike the age-based helmet law, eye protection is required for ALL operators regardless of age. Protective glasses, goggles, or a transparent face shield are mandatory for every Arkansas motorcyclist.

No. Arkansas Code §27-51-302 requires vehicles to be operated entirely within a single lane, making lane splitting illegal in both moving and stopped traffic.

Arkansas requires $25,000 per person / $50,000 per accident / $25,000 property damage (25/50/25). Personal injury protection and other coverage beyond these minimums is optional.

A standard Class M for riders 16+, and a restricted Class MD for ages 14-16 (limited to 250cc, no passengers). Class M also offers a "K" endorsement (automatic transmission) and an "L" endorsement (three-wheel/trike), each with separate written and skills testing.

No — not legally required. If equipped, they must be used correctly. Riders without turn signals must use proper arm signals instead.

For riders 21+: 0.08%. For riders under 21: zero tolerance at 0.02%.

The operator must be at least 16 to carry a passenger. Passengers must be at least 8 (exception for parades, per Ark. Code §27-20-118). No more than 2 people total on a motorcycle.

For adults, an MSF Basic RiderCourse or equivalent can waive the skills test (written test still required). For riders under 18, a state-approved course is mandatory, not optional.

The AR test covers 8 areas: motorcycle controls and operation (T-CLOCS, SEE strategy, Class M/MD licensing, K/L endorsements), lane positioning (lane splitting illegal, full lane use rights), road signs and signals (including metal bridge gratings), helmet and safety gear (under-21 helmet law, universal eye protection, 1997 repeal data), Arkansas traffic laws (25/50/25 insurance, BAC limits, implied consent), hazardous conditions (Ozark/Ouachita terrain, low-water crossings, agricultural debris), passengers and cargo, and rider fitness and responsibility.
