Correct answer

  • CNo, como norma general.No, as a general rule.
Explanation

As a general rule, you should not remove the helmet of an injured motorcyclist. If you have to give artificial respiration, the helmet may be removed, but only with a technique that keeps the neck (cervical spine) still. If you do not know this technique, you should never remove the helmet.
