MMP 10: Motorcycle Helmets – The Difference between DOT, SNELL and ECE

The Motorcycle Mentor Podcast - Un pódcast de David Mixson

Categorías:

In this session of the Motorcycle Mentor Podcast, I explain the three major motorcycle helmet certifications. If you live in the United States, you should see a DOT on every motorcycle helmet. If it doesn’t show DOT, then it’s not a real helmet. Some helmets also have the SNELL symbol. I’ll explain the difference between these two markings. More specifically, in this session you’ll find out about: What are the three most common certifications: DOT, SNELL, and ECE. Why all real helmets in the US must show the DOT symbol to be legal helmets. What is the difference between DOT and SNELL? Which is better, DOT or SNELL? Who uses the ECE rating?
