With a surge in popularity of biking and motorcycling in recent years, helmet laws have become a salient issue. In light of the fact that there is no uniform federal law, it’s imperative that bikers know the differing helmet laws for each state. The laws range from states with no helmet requirement at all to those mandating head protection for all riders to those in between requiring helmets for certain age groups. Such variability exists because each state has the power to regulate its own road safety laws.
