Is it illegal to ride a bike without a helmet in nyc?

William S

If it is, is the law enforced?

Answer
It doesn't matter if riding a bicycle without a helmet is legal or illegal in New York City. It's stupid. Even if you are the best rider in the world, someone else's stupidity, carelessness, or inattention can cause you to go down. In any collision with an automobile, the bicycle rider always loses. Your helmet will help to keep your brains from being the topping on a street pizza.
