If a quadricycle has a protective structure and seat belts, must a helmet also be used?
Active and passive safety
Explanation
For **quadricycles** that have a **protective structure** and **seat belts**, wearing a helmet is not necessary. This is because the seat belt already provides adequate protection in the event of an accident.
- Two or three-wheeled vehicles, such as motorcycles and mopeds, require the use of a helmet because they are more fragile and their occupants are at greater risk of injury in accidents. However, in the case of quadricycles with seat belts, this requirement does not apply.
- The main function of the helmet is to protect the head in the event of an accident, but when a vehicle is equipped with seat belts, they fulfill the function of protecting the occupant, eliminating the need for a helmet.
Therefore, in a quadricycle with these safety features, the use of a helmet is not necessary.
