Correct answer
No, as a general rule.
When we are obliged to assist someone injured in a motorcycle or moped accident, we must never give injured people anything to drink or eat, even if they ask for it, and the helmet of someone involved in a motorcycle or moped accident must never be removed unless it seriously obstructs their breathing. We must wait for healthcare professionals to remove the helmet, because removing it without expertise can cause serious spinal and cervical injuries.
