When required to wear a helmet, may a motorcycle rider and passenger travel with it unfastened?

Correct answer

No.

No. Article 118.1 requires an approved protective helmet properly fastened. A full-face design, low speed or an urban road does not permit leaving it loose. The question concerns people required to wear one: the exemption for vehicles with self-protective structures and seatbelts also requires the relevant technical documentation. Correct helmet use reduces injury risk without guaranteeing its elimination.
