What Are The Texas Motorcycle Helmet Laws?
A:
In Texas, motorcycle riders must wear a helmet if they are under the age of 21. If a motorcycle rider is over the age of 21, has taken a motorcycle training and safety course, and has proof of health insurance, wearing a helmet while riding is optional. Failure to wear a motorcycle helmet is a secondary offense in Texas; that is, a police officer cannot pull over a motorcycle rider only to see if he or she has medical insurance, motorcycle training, and is of age.
While motorcycle helmets are not required for many riders in Texas, helmets have been proven to minimize injuries and prevent death in the case of a motorcycle accident.
