在欧洲几乎无处不在，在和欧盟外，法律要求你穿符合ECE 22.05标准摩托车头盔。To be precise, that’s in Albania, Belgium, Bosnia/Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Greece, Italy, Croatia, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Montenegro, the Netherlands (where adding any lights to your helmet or clothing is likely to become illegal because it confuses drivers), Norway, Austria, Poland, Portugal, Ireland, Romania, Sweden, Switzerland, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
In Great Britain and Northern Ireland, you may also wear a helmet that meets British Standard BS 6658:1985 and carries the BSI Kitemark, even if it does not comply with ECE 22.05.
另一个主要的例外是德国。按照IFZ（研究所两轮安全），以下适用于德国：“头盔必须有摩托车被特制的。设计必须充分考虑特种部队和加速度是在摔倒过程中作用于摩托车手的头部。在有疑问的情况下，必须在每个单独的情况下是否确实具有足够的保护作用加以澄清“。
To be frank, that sounds dumb to me (why would you not simply specify a ready-made standard?), but the German authorities seem to understand that they’re created a problem, and do say that “It is… recommended to wear a safety helmet built, tested and approved in accordance with ECE Regulation No. 22”.
Helmet laws may change at borders; be careful because this is an obvious place for police to check.
What if you’re wearing a helmet that’s legal in your home country, but is not identified as meeting ECE-22.05? The identification is a circle on a label, usually sewn onto the retaining strap, with an ‘E’ and a number in it. The number just identifies the country in which the helmet was approved, but the ‘E’ must be there. So what of helmets that meet, say, the American DOT or Snell standards, or helmets that appear to be identical to the ones sold in Europe, but without that ‘E’ in the circle?
他们不是在欧盟或欧洲其他国家，除德国法律和，所有的地方，土耳其。该信息来自美国武装部队，尤其是空军，但如果你阅读以下的报价，你会看到，它适用于平民为好。
酷头盔在很多方面都是如此，而且是它已在欧洲磨损。
美国武装部队人员骑着摩托车在德国必须穿：“一个头盔下颏正确固定。头盔必须符合美国国家标准局，斯内尔纪念基金会准则，本IFZ（研究所两轮安全），或者经济委员会欧洲的自行车头盔制定的标准“。我相信，通过“自行车”他们的意思是“摩托车”;请纠正我，如果我错了。
But the most definitive answer to this question comes from the document “Motorcycle Safety for Airman (sic)” issued by Ramstein Air Base in Germany: “…with exception of Germany and Turkey, U.S. personnel wearing helmets which only meet DOT standards are not in compliance with the laws of most of the countries in Europe.”
和空气很好ce is good for civilians. “U.S. military personnel, members of the civilian component, and the dependents of both are generally fully subject to host nation laws where they are stationed (including motor vehicle laws) …” said no less an authority than Randy Harshman, (USAFE) special assistant for NATO legal affairs and International Law chief. The law’s the law; civilian, flygirl or flyboy. I know it doesn’t literally say that, but that’s what “fully subject to to host nation laws” means – they’re applicable to you, too, and you’ll need an ECE 22.05 approved helmet unless you’re in Germany or Turkey.
检查您的旅行保险;它可能需要戴上头盔，在你访问该国的法律。
怎么样的世界其他地区？澳大利亚允许符合澳大利亚，澳大利亚/新西兰和ECE标准的头盔。DOT和斯内尔批准的头盔是不允许的......但我一直没能获得有关国际游客的权威裁决。我的印象中，你可以穿在颁发您的摩托车牌照的国家的法律的任何头盔。
但坦率地说，如果你有一个聪明的，新的前瞻性的头盔，你应该没事任何地方在意大利，头盔检查是有点与警察的迷恋也许除外。噢，并确保你没有在荷兰头盔任何额外的灯。
