Minnesota
Motorcycle Helmet Law
Under Minnesota law, all motorcycle
operators and riders under 18 must wear a helmet. In addition, all operators
driving a motorcycle under a learner's permit, regardless of age, must wear a
helmet.
Those driving under a learner's permit
are not allowed to carry passengers.
Minnesota law also requires all
motorcycle operators, regardless of age, to wear eye protection. All helmets and
eye-protection devices must comply with the standards established by Minnesota's
Commissioner of Public Safety.
The only exceptions to Minnesota's
helmet and eye protection laws are for those participating in an
officially-authorized parade and for those riding within an enclosed cab.
Because helmet and eye protection
standards are subject to change, it is advisable to check with the Public Safety
Commissioner before taking a motorcycle out on Minnesota roadways.
