In a decision of September 18, the Paris Administrative Court asked the Paris police prefect to modify his decree of August 27, 2020, which made it compulsory to wear a mask on a motorcycle.
The French Federation of Angry Bikers strongly criticized this decision, because of the risks it posed to motorcyclists and scooter riders, in particular by quickly causing fogging on the screen (“the visor”) of the helmet.
The Court orders the prefect to modify his order before Tuesday, September 22 at noon by removing the obligation to wear a health mask for all users of 2 or 3 motorized wheels in circulation wearing a visor helmet.
This court decision follows a request filed on September 14 by Maitre de Caumont (lawyer, motorcyclist and president of the Association of Automobile Lawyers) at the request of the office ofParis Petite Couronne branch of the FFMC, since previous letters sent to the Paris prefecture (see article below) had remained unanswered.
It is a great victory for the Federation, for the benefit of all bikers and scooter riders francilians !
It’s also a great “birthday gift” for the weekend celebrating the 40th anniversary of the FFMC, organized by the FFMC 76!
40 years of fighting and 40 years of victories; Lopportunity to recall the relevance of our adage “ More numerous, stronger »!!!
