Austria: There is a bicycle helmet obligation for children up to 12 years old. Reflective vests are not mandatory at dusk, darkness or poor visibility, but certainly advantageous. Here is the Austrian bicycle regulation.

Slovakia: Bicycle helmet obligation applies to all children under 15 years of age. For adults, the helmet obligation applies only outside urban areas. However, it is strongly recommended that adults also always wear a bicycle helmet. Cyclists riding on the roadside under limited visibility must wear visible signaling elements or a reflective vest.

Hungary: There is no helmet obligation for cyclists. The maximum speed for cyclists outside built-up areas is 40 km/h. A speed of 50 km/h is allowed if the cyclist wears a helmet. At night and in poor visibility, all cyclists must wear a reflective vest.

Travel documents: A valid identity card or passport is mandatory!
