Use a bit of common sense RA, a helmet has a much bigger viewing area and is a tight fit which moves with the head. I would think that if you turned your head in a burka then the slot would not stay in the best position for viewing. Plus some burkas have mesh to further impede the view. I'm sure if I had tunnel vision, the DVLA would like to know about it.

Also, there are many establishments which demand that motorcyclists remove their helmet before entering the premises, yet allow the burka, why?
