====== CBT - Compulsory Basic training ====== In the United Kingdom, the term Compulsory Basic Training (abbreviated to CBT) is a preliminary vehicular training course which must be completed by learner-civilians wishing to ride a motorcycle or moped unaccompanied on the road[1], and remains valid for 2 years upon completion.[2] It was introduced on 1 December 1990 as a means of reducing accidents on the road caused by inexperienced drivers by reviewing aspects of riding both on and off the road with a qualified motorcycle instructor registered with an Approved Training Body (ATB).[3] If a full car licence was obtained before 1 February 2001 it is not necessary to complete a CBT course to ride a moped.[4] A test passed on an a bike with automatic transmission will result in a licence for this type of machine only. == Read More == [[wp>Compulsory_Basic_Training|CBT - Compulsory Basic Training]]
