A2Difficulty 3/5

On a motorcycle without the protective structure and seat belts required for the documented exemption, must the passenger wear a correctly fastened approved protective helmet?

Correct answer

Yes, on all types of roads

Yes, on urban and interurban roads. Riding slowly or below 20 km/h does not remove the requirement. The helmet must be approved and correctly fastened; it helps protect against injury but does not guarantee preventing it. The exemption for a vehicle with a protective structure and seat belts must be recorded in its documents and requires use of the belt; that case is excluded here.
