Helmets protect the head and brain from injury. Even with the vehicle's cage and
side nets, objects can enter the cockpit and strike the head, or the head can
strike the cage itself or objects outside the vehicle. Even the best helmet is no
guarantee against injury, but statistics indicate that helmet use significantly re-
duces the risk of brain injury. So, be safe and always wear a helmet while riding.

Helmets should be manufactured to meet the appropriate standard in your state,
province or country and should fit properly.
A helmet with face protection is a better choice as it protects also against frontal
impacts. It can also protect against debris, stones, insects, the elements, etc.
An open-face helmet does not offer the same protection for the face and chin. If
you wear an open-face helmet, you should use a snap-on face shield and/or a
pair of goggles. Ordinary glasses or sunglasses are not sufficient eye protection
for riders. They can shatter or fly off, and they allow wind and airborne objects to
reach the eyes.
For winter riding conditions, a stocking type cap, balaclava and face mask should
always be carried or worn.
Use tinted face shields or goggles in the daytime only; do not use them at night
or in poor illumination. Do not use them if they impair your ability to discern color.

Always wear closed toe footwear. Sturdy over-the-ankle boots with non-slip soles
offer more protection and allow you to plant your foot properly on footrest.
Avoid long shoelaces that can be tangled in the accelerator or brake pedals.
For winter riding conditions, rubber soled boots with either a nylon or leather
uppers, with removable felt liners are best suited.
Avoid rubber boots. Rubber boots may get trapped behind or between pedals,
impairing the proper operation of brake and accelerator pedals.

Full-fingered gloves protect hands from the wind, sun, heat, cold and flying ob-
jects. Gloves that fit snugly will improve grip on the steering wheel and help re-
duce hand fatigue. Sturdy, reinforced motorcycle or ATV gloves help protect
hands better in the event of an accident or a rollover. If gloves are too bulky, it
may be difficult to operate the controls.
For winter riding conditions, hands should be protected by a pair of snowmobile
gloves which have sufficient insulation and allow use of thumbs and fingers for
operation of controls.
