Spring has sprung! It is a great time to review Connecticut helmet and safety laws for cyclists. Connecticut motorcycle accidents and Connecticut bicycle accidents do happen and it is important to understand safety laws to avoid injury and a citation.

Motorcycle Helmet Laws

Motorcycle operators over the age of 18 years are not required to wear a safety helmet under Connecticut law. However, 16 and 17 year old motorcyclists are required to wear a helmet. All motorcyclists are required to wear protective eyewear, either goggles or glasses, unless the motorcycle is equipped with a windshield.

Bicycle Helmet Laws

All bicyclists under the age of 16 years are required to wear a safety helmet.
