a. true
b. false

It is true that a 24 years old motorcycle driver would not be required to wear a protective eyewear when riding in Florida.  

It is illegal for anyone to operate a motorcycle without wearing approved safety helmets in Florida, but there are few exemptions particularly for riders above the age of 21, provided they comply with the existing Florida Helmet Law.

Since the law has been amended in 2011, it is now compulsory for anyone over the age of 21 to prove they are covered by $10,000 medical insurance policy before they can be exempted from operating a motorcycle without wearing a protective eyewear in Florida.  

In other words, any one that is over the age of 21 can operate a motorcycle without using helmet provided they are insured. The Florida helmet is consistent with the federal safety guidelines

If you are not up to the age of 21, no matter the level of your insurance policy, you must put on helmets anytime you operate a motorcycle in Florida.

However, If you are over the age of 21 and qualified to operate without helmets, it is advisable to always carry your prove of insurance with you because law enforcement officer might request for it.
