The passenger must be over 12 years old, wear a protective helmet and sit astride with their feet resting on the side footrests, on the seat behind the rider. Exceptionally (Article 12(2)), those over 7 years old may travel on a motorcycle or moped if it is ridden by their father, mother, guardian or an adult authorized by them.
