BDifficulty 2/5

A bicycle rider under 16 travels on an urban road in extreme heat. Must they wear a helmet?

Correct answer

Yes, heat does not remove the requirement.

Yes. Under-16s must use an approved or certified, properly fastened helmet on all types of road. Heat does not remove that requirement. If safe riding is no longer possible, stop to rest. For adults, distinguish the interurban requirement and the requirement for professional bicycle or cycle riders on urban roads and travesías.
