California’s Motorcycle Helmet Laws

According to the California Vehicle Code Section 27803, motorcyclists are prohibited from riding in California without helmets. This law is not without good reason: data from the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration show that 309 motorcyclists’ lives were saved in 2016 because of helmets.

Everyone knows that motorcyclists are always susceptible to injury on the road. While helmets provide essential protection from a major injury in crashes, they will never be able to prevent catastrophic injuries or death in a serious accident caused by another driver.

Despite the use of helmets, motorcyclists can still find themselves with serious injuries if they are involved in a crash.
