Ride in Freedom Act

This bill would bar the District of Columbia from requiring people to wear a protective helmet to operate or ride on a motorcycle or motor-driven cycle. The D.C. Council could not pass, and the Mayor could not enforce, any such helmet requirement. The bill would repeal an existing D.C. regulation on helmets for these vehicles. It would also amend the D.C. Home Rule Act to add this limit to the list of things the Council may not do.
