Q. ok, i always wear a helmet when riding but if i was just taking my bike out for a short distance and really don't feel like putting all my gear on, would i get a ticket or traffic violation for it and would that make my insurance rates if i wasn't wearing a helmet? I'm obviously talking about a motorbike here not a bicycle


Answer
yes it is .

What age can I stop wearing a helmet when I bike? (Toronto)?

What is the minimum age in Toronto (Canada, Ontario), that I can ride my bicycle without wearing a helmet?


Answer
Depends on how old you are when you grow an adamantium layer of skin over your scalp...

You can legally ride without a helmet at 18, but it is *always* stupid to do so. Wearing a helmet, and wearing it properly, makes cycling immensely safer. In Toronto in particular, it's not that safe of a thing to do, but if you fall and hit your head, a helmet is the difference between having to spend $30 to replace your helmet, and having urban foxes make a meal of your brain matter.

It happens. All the freaking time. That's why whenever you see a cycling club ride past you, you can safely bet that they'll *all* be wearing helmets. Smart adults wear helmets even though they don't have to. And these days helmets can be pretty stylish, and there are always ways of dealing with helmet-head. So just get used to it, because if there's anything worth protecting in your head, you will *always* wear a helmet when you cycle.
