Which statement about eye protection for motorcycle operators is correct?
Correct answer: It is strongly recommended, and many states require it by law.
Answer options
- AIt is strongly recommended, and many states require it by law. Correct
- BIt is unnecessary if you wear a helmet.
- CIt is needed only when riding at night.
Why
Eye protection laws vary by state, and some states excuse riders whose motorcycle has a windshield, but goggles or a face shield are recommended everywhere. Without them, wind, bugs and flying grit can blur or block your sight at any time of day, and a helmet without a face shield leaves your eyes exposed.
