Summary

Existing law requires a person under 18 years of age to wear a properly fitted and fastened bicycle helmet, as specified, while operating, or riding as a passenger upon, a bicycle, a nonmotorized scooter, or a skateboard, or while wearing in-line or roller skates, upon a street, bikeway, or any other public bicycle path or trail. A violation of this provision is an infraction punishable by a fine of not more than $25. Existing law requires the parent or legal guardian having control or custody of an unemancipated minor whose conduct violates this provision to be jointly and severally liable with the minor for the amount of the fine imposed. Existing law also requires a charge under this provision to be dismissed when the person charged alleges in court, under oath, that the charge against the person is the first charge against that person under this provision, unless it is otherwise established in court that the charge is not the first charge against the person. This bill would prohibit transmitting a record of the action to the court and imposing a fee upon a citation for not wearing a bicycle helmet, as specified, if the parent or legal guardian of the person in violation of the provision delivers proof to the issuing agency within 120 days after the citation was issued that the person has a helmet meeting the specified requirements and the person has completed a local bicycle safety course or a related safety course, as specified.
