Do you know the area Helmet Laws?

We all know there is no helmet law in Connecticut, correct?



Well...



What if I were to tell you there is a "Helmet Law" in CT.



Connecticut has a partial "Helmet Law", Persons



17 and younger require a Helmet.



Rhode Island is Passenger only?

Well Rhode Island is a little more complicated than Connecticut, All passengers require a helmet, All persons under the age of 20 require a helmet

All persons, the first year of licensee (regardless of age) require a Helmet.



So if you are going to do some traveling you may want to look into it.



Massachusetts - Operator and Passenger



Vermont - Operator and Passenger



New Hampshire - NO LAW



Maine - Helmets required for operators with instructional/ learner's permits.
