MSF and Germany's General German Automobile Association

Just recently the Motorcycle Safety Foundation of the United States and the General German Automobile Association of Germany agreed to collaborate on several motorcycle safety projects.

"With more than 15 million members, the General German Automobile Association, also known as ADAC (Allgemeiner Deutscher Automobile Club), offers advanced riding and driving courses and is Germany's, and Europe's, largest automobile club. It is also the largest motorcyclist association in the world.

Once approved by the Army Service Component Command, U.S. military personnel and their families will be able to enroll in any one of four advanced ADAC riding courses recognized by the MSF, as well as the MSF Experienced RiderCourse, and receive the MSF Experienced RiderCourse completion card to satisfy the military's requirements for ongoing rider training. Regulations for the U.S. Army in Europe require that all military riders complete the MSF Basic RiderCourse or the MSF Experienced RiderCourse every three years."
