Are passengers on a quadricycle required to wear a helmet in urban areas?
Active and passive safety
Explanation
Quadricycles are vehicles that can have two or three wheels and, like motorcycles and mopeds, have certain characteristics that make them more vulnerable in the event of an accident. For this reason, it is important to follow the appropriate safety regulations.
- **Helmet use:** In general, passengers of two or three-wheeled vehicles, such as quadricycles, must wear a securely fastened safety helmet. This is crucial for protection in the event of an accident.
- **Exception to helmet use:** If the quadricycle is equipped with a **seat belt** or a **self-protection structure**, passengers are not required to wear a helmet. These features provide additional protection that makes helmet use not mandatory.
Therefore, passengers of a quadricycle must wear a helmet on urban roads only if the vehicle does not have a seat belt or self-protection structure.
