Answer 1

If you are old enough in your state to get a motorcycle license, and you have access to a bike with which to take the road test, then nobody can stop you. Actually buying a motorcycle on credit would be another thing, if you are not old enough to sign a legal contract.

Answer 2

How old are you? That is the basic. If you are over 18 you can do what you please as long as it is legal. If you are under, it could end up in court and cost your parent's big buck's. Most judge's would side with your mother. Plus, I assume they fight like cat's and dog's over your spoiled hide. But keep in mind whatever goes to lawyers will eventually be subtracted from whatever you expect to get when they die. I rode bikes for close to thirty year's. Some of the thing's I did when I was younger make me shudder now. If you are 18 and can get your parent's to spring for a professional riding course, well good. Odds are you will live a lot longer and have a lot more fun. Learning the hard way mean's a lot of luck, losing half your skin at minimum, and a few broken bones at medium. Worst is ending up dead or with progressive brain damage. I have seen one guy go from walking broken up, crippled, to sitting in a motorized wheelchair in a year. I also helped bury a kid who followed me and his big brother everywhere. Fifteen year's old. Looked totally life like in his coffin. Except for a big purple bruise over half his face. Even the best undertaker's could not cover it. Only about ten MPH, no helmet thrown off an off road bike and hit a limestone outcrop. Bike's look cool but can bite you fast as a snake. If you want to ride, get a pro-instruction course first. And both your Mom and Dad are right. You are wrong to play them off against each other. The real loser in that situation is you on the long run. The more they fight the less contact you have with both. The more money the lawyer's make the less for them and you.

Answer 3

Actually, I like the question as stated - I was kind of hoping it would go on with "after the accident". Whether she can get the court to block your father from giving permission if you otherwise qualify but need permission. They have done so many things to limit teen drivers ... in olden days, if you could con someone into taking you to the drivers license station and letting them use your car, I don't think you needed permission to get a license. Now? Buying a car or bike under the age of consent is another question.

Answer 4

In California, you need both parents permission to obtain a license, if they have joint custody.

However, once you obtain the basic driver's license, you can return to the DMV and take the tests for a motorcycle endorsement, without additional parental approval.

Don't know what state you're in, but it probably has similar provisions.

Answer 5

The laws of each state are different. Here in California, both custodial parents must sign the consent form only one parent has custody, or all legal guardians unless only one legal guardian has custody. Your parent's divorce decree probably specifies which parent can make this type of decision for you.

Answer 6

Get the bike e book from the dmv, learn it, then take the written attempt and get your learner's enable. it is going to in straight forward terms fee you some money. then you definately can holiday if somebody with a bike license is in yet another motor vehicle or bike following you. Sounds form of dumb yet that's the way it truly is. once you are going to crash you are going to crash no rely if a qualified man or woman is following you or no longer. With a assist you may no longer have any passengers and can in straight forward terms holiday in sunlight hours. that's the way it truly is in my state.

Answer 7

It might help to have your age and state to answer this question.

On a side note, if he continues his plan to fund your motorcycle against the wishes of your mother, then that may explain part of the reason that they are no longer married.

Answer 8

If you're under 21 and in the U.S. and as you have mentioned they have joint custody...oh yes, she can stop you as she will probably have to sign for you to get it.
