I have read through a good portion of this post and still not sure what I want to do. I live in NC and it is my understanding that a helmet is required by law however DRH40130-ML-108 would seem to contradict that. Being a motorcyclists in a state that requires a helmet affords me the luxury of having a few to choose from. Typically on my Harley I wear my turtle shell helmet which is not DOT approved and have never gotten a ticket.
Does anyone on here know of anybody in the state of North Carolina that has actually gotten a ticket for driving their SS without a helmet?
