Question 5826

In which case may a motorcycle rider ride without a helmet?

  1. When the motorcycle has a self-protective structure and a seat belt, and this is recorded on its ITV card.
  2. In no case, since a helmet is always required.
  3. When riding on urban roads at a reduced speed.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: When the motorcycle has a self-protective structure and a seat belt, and this is recorded on its ITV card.

When the motorcycle has a self-protective structure and a seat belt, and this is recorded on its ITV card, like the motorcycle with a roof in the image. The rider may then go without a helmet but must wear the seat belt. Riding slowly or in the city does not exempt the rider from wearing a helmet.
