Show answer

Correct answer

  • Cla falta de casco.not wearing a helmet.
Explanation

Spanish traffic rules make helmets compulsory for riders and passengers of motorcycles and mopeds. The Traffic Code states this clearly and stresses that the helmet is an essential piece of safety equipment that helps prevent serious or fatal injuries in an accident. Not wearing a helmet greatly increases the risk of death in motorcycle accidents, which makes it one of the main causes of death among motorcyclists. So the correct answer is not wearing a helmet.
