What safety element are drivers and passengers of motorcycles, mopeds, and three-wheeled vehicles required to use on all types of roads?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

According to the General Traffic Regulations, drivers and passengers of motorcycles (with or without a sidecar), mopeds, and three-wheeled vehicles must use homologated or certified protective helmets when driving on both urban and interurban roads. The helmet is the most important passive safety element for these users, as it protects the head and brain in the event of an accident. Seatbelts would only be the correct answer if the vehicle had a self-protection structure and was equipped with seatbelts (thus exempting the use of a helmet), but the general rule requires the helmet.
