Good question: it’s our understanding that a motorcyclist could potentially be cited for not wearing a DOT approved helmet while riding in one of the states (U.S.) that requires a motorcycle helmet. Also, check with your insurance company – there may be some way they could avoid paying for health care after an accident if you were not wearing a legal helmet.
