⏱️ 1 min read
Class A or class B, town or countryside: on a moped, the helmet is not optional. Here is exactly what the exam expects.
✨ Key takeaways
- Approved and fastened helmet: rider AND passenger.
- Applies to class A (≤ 25 km/h) and class B (≤ 45 km/h) alike.
- No exception for distance or built-up areas.
On a moped (class A and class B alike), an approved helmet is compulsory for the rider and the passenger, correctly fastened. A helmet sitting on your head with the chin strap undone = no helmet.
Your 15-year-old passenger refuses the helmet "for 500 metres". Are they allowed?
