Yes. Even though driving laws change from states to state, infractions become part of your record and can be pulled up by any state DMV in the nation.
Just google state helmet laws?
No, you are not required to wear a motorcycle helmet in the state of Florida as long as you are 21 years of age and have at least $10,000 in medical insurance coverage.
If there is no helmet law in your state, the cost of motorcycle insurance is the same whether you wear a helmet or not.
I asked and the answer is no. It is considered an extension of the motorcycle. But make sure it has lights and that passenger is wearing a helmet The question wasn't does a sidecar rig require a "special" endorsement The question was "does the state of NJ require a motorcycle endorsement for a sidecar". The answer is YES. to operate a motorcycle with a sidecar you must have a motorcycle endorsement
If there is a mandatory helmet law in your state, you will probably get a ticket if you do not wear a helmet when riding your motorcycle.
Yes, definitely. All major motorcycle helmet producers state that after an accident where there has been a blow to the helmet, you should not use it again but have to get a new one. The reason is there can be hidden damage to the helmet, making it unsafe.
If your state requires that motorcycle riders wear a helmet, and you were not wearing a helmet when you had an accident, insurance companies may use that against you to reduce any settlement. If your state has no helmet law, then insurance companies are prohibited from reducing your settlement by federal law.
Currently Missouri requires motorcycle riders to wear a helmet. In 2009 the Governor vetoes a bill that would have done away with the state's helmet law. Since then the House and the Senate have continued their attempt to do away with the helmet law.
According to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, all of the southern states have some sort of law that requires a motorcycle rider to wear a helmet, though the laws do differ. Some of the laws require motorcycle riders of a certain age to wear a helmet, while other laws require all motorcycle riders to wear helmets, regardless of their age. Also, while all southern states do have some form of the law that required motorcycle riders to wear helmets, the following states have no law regarding helmets: Illinois, Iowa, and New Hampshire. It's suggested that before you ride in any specific state, you check the local laws of that state to see what is required.

The better question is ..... Is that a state that never has accidents? Lol
