Rules of the RoadDifficulty: 3/5
You’re giving your friend a lift as a pillion passenger on your motorcycle. Your friend says they don’t like helmets and asks to ride without one just this once. In which situation would it be legal for your friend to ride without wearing a protective helmet?
Explanation
The Highway Code Rule 83 states that on all journeys the rider and pillion passenger on a motorcycle, scooter or moped MUST wear a protective helmet that complies with regulations and is securely fastened. The only exemption is for a follower of the Sikh religion while wearing a turban. Personal consent, age, speed, road type or written disclaimers do not remove this legal requirement.
