None of Provider and its Related Parties and/or the Municipalities represent or warrant the quality or safety characteristics of any helmet, and User agrees that none of Provider and its Related Parties and/or the Municipalities are liable for any injury suffered by User while using the Service, whether or not User is wearing a helmet at the time of injury. User may need to take additional safety measures or precautions not specifically addressed in this Agreement. User represents and warrants that User has and shall wear a Snell, CPSC, ANSI, or ASTM approved helmet, properly sized, fitted, and fastened, at all times while using the Service.
Prohibited Acts. User must not ride a Provider bicycle while carrying any briefcase, backpack, bag, or other item if it impedes User’s ability to operate a Provider bicycle safely. In addition, Provider riders must not:

User agrees that Provider may require User to return a Provider bicycle at any time.
