BDifficulty 2/5

Under the rules in force from 1 October 2026, must a bicycle rider aged 16 or over wear a helmet when riding on an urban road as part of their professional activity?

Correct answer

Yes, because they are riding a bicycle as part of their professional activity.

Yes. Article 118.2 requires riders conducting their professional activity on bicycles and other cycles to wear an approved or certified, properly fastened helmet on urban roads and travesías. Under-16s must wear one on every type of road; adults must also wear one on interurban roads. Not every adult is exempt in town.
