Why is learning to ride risky?

  1. a. It requires physical strength

  2. b. Riding is only for professionals

  3. c. There is a chance of falling and getting injured

  4. d. Riding can be expensive

The correct answer is: c. There is a chance of falling and getting injured

Learning to ride a motorcycle can be considered risky due to the inherent chance of falling and getting injured. Riding a motorcycle requires a set of skills that are different from driving a car, and beginners may face challenges such as balancing, cornering, braking, and maintaining control. Inexperienced riders are more susceptible to accidents, making it essential for new riders to undergo proper training and practice to minimize the risk of injury._CHOICE_B_ and _CHOICE_D_ are incorrect because physical strength and cost are not the primary reasons why learning to ride is risky. Riding is not exclusive to professionals but anyone who has the necessary knowledge and skills. The main concern lies in the potential for accidents and injuries due to the nature of motorcycle riding.
