On a two-wheeled motorcycle without a protective structure and seat belts qualifying for the statutory exemption, on which roads must the rider and passenger wear helmets?

Correct answer

Urban and interurban roads

On all road types, including urban and interurban roads. Article 118.1.a requires a helmet approved under UNECE Regulation R22 and properly fastened. The article’s exemption requires a protective structure, seat belts and confirmation in technical documentation; in that case the belt must be worn. Merely travelling slowly or considering a road low-risk provides no exemption.
