    Top Helmet Laws

    Motorcycles

    Licensed or endorsed riders 18 years old or older are not required to wear a motorcycle helmet. Any passenger, no matter the age, must wear a helmet.

    Snowmobiles

    No mandatory helmet law exists.

    Top Cell Phone Laws

    There are no driving restrictions regarding the use of cell phones.

    Top Headlight Laws

    You must use your headlights:

    • Between one-half hour after sunset and one-half hour before sunrise.
    • When weather conditions limit visibility to less than 1,000 feet.
    • When driving on roads that require headlight use (Seward Highway).

    Top Child Car Seat

    • All kids under the age of four must be secured in a federally-approved child safety seat when riding a vehicle.
    • All kids over the age of four must, depending on age and size, either ride in a secured child safety seat or wear a seat belt.

    If you're in the market for one, you can shop online for a child car seat any time of day. When ordering, make sure the car seat matches your child's weight, height and age.

    Top Unattended Kids or Pets in Cars

    If you feel a child or pet has been left unattended in a car for an inordinate amount of time, especially during extreme weather conditions, dial 911 and remain at the vehicle in question until authorities arrive.

    Top Reporting Drunk and/or Unsafe Drivers

    Alaska law enforcement authorities strongly advocate the nation's Report Every Drunk Driver Immediately (REDDI) program. If you suspect someone should not be operating a vehicle, dial 911 immediately. In such instances it is better to err on the side of caution.
