Do You Have to Wear a Motorcycle Helmet in Alabama?
If you are riding a motorcycle in Alabama, no matter if you're the operator or passenger, you must wear a motorcycle helmet. Alabama is one of the 19 states that have what is known as a universal helmet law that requires riders to wear protective DOT approved helmets. Wearing a helmet has been proven to significantly reduce both head and neck injuries, but also the possibility of death.
If your own health and safety wasn't enough to wear a helmet, choosing to not comply with the law and not wear a helmet in Alabama could result in you getting a misdemeanor charge. You could also be fined up to $100 and be sentenced to jail time or community service for 180 days.
