Bill Summary

Relative to standards for protective headgear for operators or passengers on motorcycles. Transportation.

AI Summary

This bill proposes to remove a specific section of existing Massachusetts law (Chapter 90, Section 7) related to protective headgear requirements for motorcycle operators or passengers. While the original text is not fully provided, the bill appears to be eliminating language that likely mandated helmet usage, specifically for individuals under a certain age (as suggested by the phrase "or older" in the section being deleted). By striking out this entire sentence, the bill seems to be changing or potentially repealing existing motorcycle helmet regulations. The implications could mean fewer restrictions on motorcycle helmet usage in Massachusetts, which might affect rider safety standards. Without the full context of the original law, the precise impact of this change is not completely clear, but it appears to modify current motorcycle safety requirements.
