AI Summary

This bill aims to repeal the existing law that requires motorcycle riders to wear a helmet. The current law, Section 17C-15-44 of the West Virginia Code, establishes safety equipment and requirements for motorcyclists, motorcycles, motor-driven cycles, and mopeds, including the motorcycle helmet mandate. By repealing this section, the bill effectively removes the requirement for motorcyclists to wear helmets while riding in West Virginia.
