Show the answer

A passenger seat and footrestsThis was the right answer

When carrying a pillion passenger, you should explain to them that they must keep their feet on the footrests. Tell them not to give hand signals, lean away from the rider when cornering, fidget or move around. Also check that they aren’t wearing anything long or loose that could get caught in the rear wheel or drive chain.
