A1Difficulty 3/5

Your motorcycle must be fitted with a reflector (reflective device). Where must it be located?

Correct answer

At the rear of the motorcycle.

The mandatory reflector is at the rear and is red and non-triangular. A reflector returns received light towards its source; it is not a lamp emitting its own light. The side-mounted triangular option does not describe the motorcycle’s mandatory rear device. Triangular reflectors identify the rear of trailers and semitrailers, subject to the applicable regulatory exceptions.
