How should a motorcycle helmet fit?
- A.Loose enough to move freely when you shake your head
- B.Snugly, without being painfully tight, and without shifting around
- C.Tilted back so it does not touch your forehead
- D.One size too large so you can wear a hat under it
Correct answer
B. Snugly, without being painfully tight, and without shifting around
Why
A helmet should fit snugly and stay in place when you move your head. A loose helmet can shift or come off and cannot protect you as designed.
