Everyone knows the Motorcycle Safety Foundation, but the Pennsylvania DMV dictates our motorcycle safety courses. Because Pennsylvania’s Motorcycle Safety Course it’s pre-paid with public dollars.
You can read more about the program on the PennDot website: https://www.dmv.pa.gov/Driver-Services/Motorcyclists/PAMSP/
Under “locations,” you can find motorcycle safety course providers in your area. For me, I used Total Control.
If you can judge a service by its product, Total Control took this non-rider; Yes never drove a motorcycle til I showed up at the course, and they trained me to pass the final exam and get newly licensed as a Pa Motorcycle License holder.

My later review about using the Pa Motorcycle Safety Course to get my Pa Motorcycle License: Is The Motorcycle Safety Course Worth It?
Hi I’m Tom, A New Motorcycle Rider and Blog Author.
I am a new motorcycle rider(Pa Motorcycle Learner’s Permit at the end of 2020, and I received a full M-Class Pa Motorcycle License in 2021, only after passing the Pa Motorcycle Safety Course).
I bought my first motorcycle, a TaoTao TBR7 (A Chinese Dual-sport motorcycle), at the beginning of 2021 and have been doing upgrades on that motorcycle since.
I added to my motorcycle collection by buying a Boom Vader Gen 2 motorcycle in 2022, and that little Grom-Clone bike has been upgraded by me as well.
I continue to ride my Boom Vader Gen 2 motorcycle as well as my TaoTao TBR7 dual-sport bike.
