Court rules Myrtle Beach helmet law invalid
The South Carolina Supreme Court has ruled that Myrtle Beach's law requiring motorcyclists to wear a helmet is invalid.
The lawsuit was filed in April 2009 by 49 people after the city enacted the helmet law in 2008, requiring DOT-approved helmets for all riders in city limits. Under South Carolina law, anyone over the age of 21 is not required to wear a helmet.
