Emergency ProceduresDifficulty: 1/5

You see a 12-year-old child riding a bicycle without a helmet on a quiet residential road. In which situation would this be allowed under the Highway Code?

Explanation

Highway Code Rule 49 states that children under 14 MUST wear a securely fastened helmet that complies with the Regulations when riding a cycle. The only exception is for a child who is a follower of the Sikh religion while wearing a turban. Riding slowly, being supervised, or travelling a short distance does not remove the legal requirement to wear a helmet.
