On September 1, 2023, the state of Delaware officially enacted a new motorcycle helmet law that pertains specifically to riders with new motorcycle endorsements on their licenses. As of September 1, 2023, any rider obtaining a new motorcycle endorsement on or after that date will be required by law to wear a motorcycle helmet and eye protection for the first two years after receiving that endorsement.
Additionally, if a new rider in Delaware chooses to take a passenger during those first two years of riding with their newly obtained motorcycle endorsement, that passenger must also wear a helmet and eye protection.
