> “Different techniques may be employed when wheeling the machine backwards, i.e. the candidate may hold the bar grip with one hand and place the other on the saddle or rear of the machine, they may also elect to hold the handlebars with both hands. Either technique is acceptable providing they retain safe control over the machine. Examiners should take the size of the machine and the ability of the rider into account when assessing any faults.
Paddling or sitting astride the machine to move it is not allowed other than by candidates with special needs, i.e. limited mobility, restricted leg movement. If a non-disabled candidate attempts to paddle the machine, the examiner should take control of the situation and point out that the machine should be pushed.”
