Covid-19 masks for motorcycles – What is the rule

Those wearing helmets not obliged to wear a mask

Newsroom October 27 08:36

Since Saturday morning, when the mandatory wearing of a Covid-19 mask outdoors was introduced in Attica, there has been some confusion regarding its use in cars.

The issue was clarified yesterday, as only first-degree relatives living in the same house are permitted to not wear it.

As far as motorcycles are concerned, a rider wearing a helmet is not obligated to wear a mask if they are alone.

Not even when he has another passenger behind.

But the co-rider is mandated to wear a mask if they are not a first-degree relative.
