Brazil's traffic code (CTB), Article 252, bans any driver — including motorcyclists — from wearing earbuds plugged into the ear while operating a vehicle. Breaking the rule on a bike brings a R$130.16 fine and 4 points on your license, a medium-severity infraction, while helmet-built speakers that don't sit inside the ear canal remain the one accepted exception.

Brian Kou关于Scooters · Asian Motorcycle Markets的点评

Back in Asia I've seen plenty of scooter riders sitting at a red light with one earbud in. In Brazil that habit could cost you a R$130.16 fine plus four points — that's not nothing. I still ride with my ears open even on a scooter, because you need to hear the horn coming. At least a speaker built into the helmet stays legal.

Do that many people actually ride while listening to music?

Honestly the wind noise beats music on a bike anyway

Wonder how much R$130 actually is in yen

Wish Japan cracked down harder on single-earbud riding too

Funny how different the standards are country to country

Banning stick-in earbuds but allowing helmet speakers feels pretty loose as rules go

But not hearing what's around you is genuinely dangerous though
