Requires motorcycle operators and passengers to wear protective headgear

Summary

The bill would make it mandatory for anyone under 26, and for adults with only an instruction permit, to wear protective headgear when operating or riding a motorcycle or motortricycle on public roads. Riders 26 or older could be exempt if they show proof of health insurance that covers motorcycle injuries. It also limits penalties to a $25 fine and prevents local governments from adding their own helmet rules.
