The chopper-style “Novelty” helmet provide little to no protection to the skull and face. If you are not wearing a DOT or Snell approved helmet! Crash!!

Motorcycle Helmets The leading cause of serious injury/fatalities in motorcycle accidents is Not wearing a Helmet or wearing an improper one. The ONLY authorized helmet for Army Motorcycle Operator / passenger is one approved by DOT/Snell. In most cases, the only way to tell the difference between a novelty helmet and a DOT certified helmet is a visual/hands-on inspection.
