## Question
Although only 10 months have passed since obtaining my large motorcycle license, I have held my regular motorcycle license for 2 years, so I can ride a large motorcycle with a passenger.

## Correct answer
True

## Explanation
The Rules of the Road specify that even if less than one year has passed since receiving a large motorcycle license, you can ride with a passenger if one year has passed since receiving a regular motorcycle license. In this case, since you have held the regular motorcycle license for 2 years, riding with a passenger is permitted.
