A1Difficulty 3/5

Why is an approved, correctly fitted full-face helmet recommended over an open-face helmet for motorcycle riding?

Correct answer

Because it also protects the face and jaw, including the chin.

Because it adds protection for the face and jaw, including the chin. It must fit correctly and be properly fastened; its retention system is not an optional accessory. A helmet does not guarantee prevention of every injury.
