the difference

I can drive. No problem. OK, I maybe get in a car twice a year, but the basics of managing a gearstick and clutch and accelerator are pretty much muscle memory, and the meat of it - the reading of traffic, the position in the lane, the anticipation and actions... Those are the same as you do on a motorcycle.

HOwever....

Parking.

Once, a very long time ago, I passed a test that included reversing into a parking spot, and so gained the licence I have used ever since.

I'm rather glad they don't retest your parking skills!
