“ A helmet on your head will keep you away from a hospital bed…!”
Wearing a helmet while participating in activities like bicycle riding or motorcycle riding can drastically lessen the chance of suffering a serious brain injury. All too often, people taking part in these activities are seriously injured because they chose not to wear a helmet.
Motorcycle helmets and bike helmets lessen the impact of hard surfaces that hit the head during a bike or motorcycle accident. Helmets are designed to compress when struck, which decreases the severity of the impact by absorbing and dispersing force.
