In which case is a traffic officer authorized to immobilize a motorcycle?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

According to Road Safety Law in Spain, traffic surveillance officers will proceed to immobilize the vehicle when either the driver or the passenger fails to use the mandatory protective helmet where required. This measure is taken to guarantee immediate safety, and the motorcycle will remain immobilized until the cause is resolved (i.e., until the driver or passenger has an approved helmet to continue the journey). The other options (overhanging cargo or age) have specific regulations, but the absence of a helmet is a direct and definitive cause for immobilization.
