That is, The use of helmets that cover the entire head, including the back of the head and chin, will be permitted.. And while modular helmets allow this part to be exposed to air when they are “open,” they provide more protection than helmets. Jet.

The use of gloves will also be mandatory when riding a motorcycle. However, there is one nuance in the new rules, both regarding the type of helmet and the use of gloves on motorcycles: It will only be used without fail when driving on the road.as current obligations remain on city roads,
