What additional requirement is there for motorcycle operators with a Class M learner's permit?

For operators holding a Class M learner's permit, it is mandatory to wear protective eyewear, unless the motorcycle is equipped with a proper windshield. This regulation is implemented to enhance safety by protecting the operator's eyes from debris, wind, and other environmental factors that could impair vision while riding. Wearing protective eyewear significantly reduces the risk of eye injuries and helps ensure a clear line of sight, which is critical for safe operation on the road. This requirement reinforces the importance of safety in motorcycle riding, particularly for those who are still in the learning phase.
