🏍️Motorcycle Helmets Labeling
NHTSA invites public comments about our intention to request approval from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for an extension of a currently-approved information collection titled "Motorcycle Helmets (Labeling)" (OMB Control Number: 2127-0518). Before a Federal agency can collect certain information from the public, it must receive approval from OMB. Under procedures established by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, before seeking OMB approval, Federal agencies must solicit public comment on proposed collections of information, including extensions and reinstatement of previously approved collections. This document describes a collection of information for which NHTSA intends to seek OMB approval on Motorcycle Helmets Labeling.

This action withdraws the notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) published in the Federal Register on May 21, 2015 proposing amendments to Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 218, "Motorcycle Helmets." The NPRM proposed three main changes to FMVSS No. 218: adding a definition of motorcycle helmet, adding preliminary screening requirements, and adding an alternate compliance process. Based on NHTSA's analysis of the comments received and other considerations, the Agency has decided to withdraw the rulemaking proposal.
