The history of motorcycle helmet, laws and facts are an interesting topic. There was no need for cyclists to worry about bike helmets When the first motorcycle was Built around 1885, was because there was a lot of speed associated with this bike. This led to the history of motorcycle helmet, laws and facts.
A professor at the University of Southern California has made the motorcycle helmet in 1953, because Harley Davidson and Indian Motorcycles were on their way to the creation of the motorcycle for riders who want speed. As the need to drive faster than the increase in motorcycle deaths.
The government has begun to see the need for helmets, and in 1958, officers from the California Highway Patrol began wearing helmets first in the hopes of setting an example for motorcyclists in California.
In 1966, road safety was the law, which requires that states have mandatory helmet laws in order to receive federal highway funds. In 1975, there were 47 states that have acted in accordance with the Road Safety Act to receive funds for construction and road maintenance. That same year, Congress repealed the law on road safety and the mortality rate started to increase again in the states also repealed helmet laws.
This has not changed while the U.S. has moved back the application and removal of laws and motorcycle helmets have become more Quick Statistics show that while motorcycles are only 2% registered vehicles on the roads is a rate of 8% mortality when involved in a motorcycle accident.
Studies have been done and was done in 1990 and although was a long time that data is unchanged, except for the number of drivers entered and the amount of injury and death. The University of California did this study and this study has demonstrated that in 900 motorcycle accidents had about 980 head and neck injuries. This study took into account not only the driver, but the injury to passengers, and the study shows these lesions was reduced by the use of helmets for motorcyclists.
The history of motorcycle helmet, laws and facts are still valid today:
1. Fact: Head injuries are the leading cause of death among motorcyclists involved in crashes.
2. Fact: Helmets are approximately 29% for preventing deaths and injuries on the head.
3. Fact: A person who without a helmet is 40% more likely died in an accident that the driver who wears a helmet.
Fact 4.: A study by Crash Outcome Data Evaluation System pilots showed helmet use were 70% chance of avoiding brain damage. This study also showed that pilots not wearing helmets had a 3% risk of suffering the worst injuries that runners wear helmets.
5. Fact: A NHTSA study showed in 2003 that mile for mile, the biker is 32 times more likely to be killed the driver of a car.
Indeed, these facts merely show a big difference in what the cycling helmets in accidents and faceless. While helmet laws can not be run with a helmet offers more protection when on the road for the driver and passenger, but also a significant difference between death and brain damage in an accident.
Riders enjoy the freedom that motorcycles give them, the air and ran for the emotion and can be as exciting with a helmet on than without it. This is particularly true in the beach areas like Culver City, Marina del Rey, Playa del Rey, Santa Monica and Huntington Beach.
