I had to look this up. Age limit for moped is 16. Theoretical exam only.
Age limit for motorcycle is 18 (and 21 for motorcycles +25 kW). There are 2 options after theoretical exam:
- 8 hours with a driving school
- Lessons with a 'private' teacher
No minimum number of months of driving experience specified (so you can have 8 hours with the driving school and go straight to the pratical exam). People who obtained their driver's license before 1985 can drive a motorcycle without any examinations or lessons!
So all in all not what you call a high-quality education.
