Define "legal"? You mean to drive on the road? I don't know about the UK, but none of the states in the US allow for legal registration and licensing of a quad for street use.
That said, the specifics vary state to state in the US, but there's no law requiring a helmet or limiting passengers so long as the vehicles are being operated off road either with permission from the land owner or on public property set aside for off road vehicles.

hey, right i'll be gettin a new bike soon which also means a new helmet. now for the question. i'll be doing a good bit of mountain biking and probably some downhill stuff aswell and i'm not sure what kinda helmet to get. should i go for:
common bike helmet: http://static.howstuffworks.com/gif/productImages/1/9/00000116719-GiroPneumoBicycleHelmet-large.jpeg
Mullet helmet: http://www.fifecycles.co.uk/catalog/images/mullet.jpg
Full face helmet: http://img296.imageshack.us/img296/7137/yh661pb7nclsideqt7.jpg
or do u have other suggestions. 1 thing that gets to me is heat. when i'm cycling i tend to get REALLY hot and when i put on a helmet it doesnt help much....neither does my mop of hair which i love so i'm not cutting it before u suggest. but that said i'm also very concious about gettin a blow to the head. i've been told should get a fullface by one person and a mullet by some1 else. i can see why the fullface is better cause it protects ur chin but would i get far too hot? have u any suggestions?
Answer
The regular bike helmet will be fine for riding on the road and most trails. The heat isn't too bad with one of these and if your real worried get one with many large air holes. The one in the picture is nice.
But for downhill you will definitely want a full face helmet. For 2-5 minutes at a time going fast down a hill the extra protection is well worth the heat.
