North Carolina Motorcycle Helmet Law

Hendren Redwine & Malone

What is the North Carolina motorcycle helmet law?

North Carolina General Statute 20-140.4 is the North Carolina motorcycle helmet law. This law requires that every motorcycle rider, regardless of age, wear a safety helmet. The law also requires that the helmet comply with federal standards. The federal standards for motorcycle helmets can be found at Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 218.

FMVSS 218 requires that every motorcycle helmet have a certain level of impact attenuation resistance. The federal motorcycle law also rrequires that the helmet have a certain level of penetration resistance. Also, the helmet must contain labelling indicating compliance with the federal motorcycle helmet standards.
