2.0 SAFETY
2.5 Operating Without Instruction
Operating this vehicle without proper instruction or training
increases the risk of an accident/incident. The operator must
understand how to operate the modified vehicle properly in
different situations and on different types of terrain. RPAMS
strongly recommends taking a training course and completing
the associated test to verify driver/operator proficiency.
2.6 Safe Riding Gear
Riding in this vehicle without wearing an approved helmet and
protective eyewear increases the risk of serious injuries in the
event of an accident/incident. Operators and all occupants must
wear a helmet, eye protection, gloves, protective apparel and
over-the-ankle boots.
Helmet
Wearing a helmet or appropriately certified head protective
gear can prevent a severe head injury. Whenever riding this
RPAMS upfitted vehicle, always wear a helmet that meets or
exceeds established safety standards.
Approved helmets in the USA and Canada bear a U.S.
Department of Transportation (DOT) label.
Approved helmets in Europe, Asia and Oceania bear the ECE
22.05 label. The ECE mark consists of a circle surrounding the
letter E, followed by the distinguishing number
of the country which has granted approval. The
approval number and serial number will also be
displayed on the label.
