Clause 1.10 (term “Motorcycle”)
Motorcycle — a two-wheeled motor vehicle with or without a sidecar, equipped with an engine with a displacement of 50 cc or more. Scooters, motor carriages, three-wheeled and other motor vehicles with a maximum permitted mass not exceeding 400 kg are equated to motorcycles.
This clause tests the knowledge that the definition of “motorcycle” consists of the main part (a two-wheeled motor vehicle with an engine of 50 cc or more, with or without a sidecar) and an additional provision regarding equivalent vehicles (in particular, three-wheeled vehicles, etc., up to 400 kg).
Thus, the correct answer is “Answers indicated in points 1, 2.”, given that according to the definition in the Traffic Rules, a motorcycle includes both a two-wheeled motor vehicle with the appropriate engine displacement and a list of vehicles equated to motorcycles under the condition of a maximum permitted mass up to 400 kg.
In this question, you need to rely on the definition of the term from paragraph 1.10 of the Traffic Rules of Ukraine. It is this paragraph that establishes which vehicle is considered a motorcycle for the purposes of the traffic rules.
A motorcycle, according to the Traffic Rules, is primarily a two-wheeled motor vehicle, which may be with or without a sidecar. An important feature is the presence of an engine with a displacement of 50 cc or more. That is, for example, a two-wheeled vehicle with an engine of 50 cc or 125 cc falls under the definition of a motorcycle.
The Traffic Rules separately specify that some other motor vehicles are equated to motorcycles: in particular, motor scooters, motor wheelchairs, as well as three-wheeled vehicles, if their permitted maximum mass does not exceed 400 kg. For example, a tricycle with a mass of up to 400 kg is also considered a motorcycle under the Traffic Rules, even though it is not a classic two-wheeled version.
That is why both components, which are usually separated into options 1 and 2, are correct: one describes the basic definition (two-wheeled motor vehicle with/without a sidecar and with an engine of 50 cc or more), and the other adds a list of vehicles equated to motorcycles (motor scooters, motor wheelchairs, three-wheeled vehicles, etc. with a mass of up to 400 kg). Each of these points alone provides only part of the full definition.
Therefore, the correct answer is "The answers indicated in points 1 and 2," since a motorcycle under the Traffic Rules includes both two-wheeled motor vehicles with an engine of 50 cc or more (with or without a sidecar), as well as motor scooters, motor wheelchairs, and three-wheeled motor vehicles with a mass of up to 400 kg that are equated to them.
