Risk training part 1 for motorcycles – Riskettan MC

Risk training part 1, often called Riskettan MC, is a mandatory theoretical training for anyone who is going to get a driving license for A1 (light motorcycle), A2 (medium motorcycle) or A (heavy motorcycle). The training aims to increase awareness of the specific risks of riding a motorcycle and how drivers can reduce them.

What does Riskettan MC cover?

Riskettan MC is a theoretical course that covers:

  • Alcohol and drugs: How these substances affect your driving ability and what consequences this can have.
  • Fatigue: The risks of driving when you are tired and how it affects your attention and reaction ability.
  • Other risky behaviors: Identification and understanding of behaviors that increase the risk of accidents, such as inattention or aggressive driving.

The training lasts at least 180 minutes excluding breaks and is carried out in a group. Active participation and reflection are central parts of the course.

Validity and upgrading of qualifications

Risk training is valid for a maximum of five years or until you have obtained your driving license. If you have already completed Riskettan for a lower qualification (e.g. A1) and want to upgrade to a higher qualification (A2 or A) within the validity period, you do not need to complete the training again.

The difference between Riskettan and Risktvåan MC

To obtain a motorcycle driving license, you must complete both Risk training part 1 (Riskettan MC) and Risk training part 2 (Risktvåan MC):

  • Riskettan MC: A theoretical training that addresses alcohol, drugs, fatigue and other risky behaviors.

  • Risktvåan MC: A practical training that focuses on speed, safety and driving under different road and weather conditions.

Both parts are mandatory and must be completed before you can take the knowledge and driving test.

Why is Riskettan MC important?

Motorcyclists are more exposed in traffic than car drivers, because they lack a protective body. By understanding the risks and how to avoid them, you will have a safer and more secure ride. Riskettan gives you knowledge about how to reduce the risk of accidents and make better decisions in traffic.
