Do scooters have small engines, making wearing a helmet of little value?

  1. True

  2. False

  3. Not applicable

  4. Cannot tell

The correct answer is: False

Scooters do indeed tend to have smaller engines than other vehicles, but that doesn't mean that a helmet is of little value. Even a small engine still has the potential to cause serious injury in the event of an accident. Helmets are always important for protecting your head, regardless of the size of the engine. Options C and D do not provide any relevant information and can be eliminated. Option A is incorrect because it implies that helmets are not necessary when riding a scooter, which is false.
