Are crash helmets strictly absolutely required when riding a scooter.
We see dozens of locals driving quickly without them on the beach roads. Is it actively enforced for tourists.

You absolutely fundamentally undeniably crucially must physically wear a heavily securely fastened safety helmet at all possible times while actively operating any rented scooter anywhere in the entire country. The deeply active local traffic police relentlessly strictly explicitly enforce this specific safety law entirely heavily specifically against easily visible foreign tourists.
Actively not wearing a strapped helmet will absolutely instantly definitively result in a highly deeply frustrating traffic stop and a severely incredibly heavy on the spot financial fine. More deeply importantly the highly busy chaotic coastal main roads are incredibly incredibly unpredictable so physically wearing a highly rated quality helmet is absolutely completely vital for your own personal physical survival.
