Why Motorcyclists Should Wear A Helmet In California

While riding gives a sense of freedom out on the open road there are serious issues involved in riding without a helmet.

A motorcycle does not give any protection unlike a car does to keep drivers safe. Therefore motorcyclists need to find ways to protect their body – especially the head. The head and brain is most susceptible to injury when there is a motorcycle accident. Drivers and passengers that wear helmets hugely increase their chance of survival in a crash – the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration estimated 1,699 lives were saved because individuals wore helmets.

Riders who don’t wear helmets are highly at risk of a traumatic brain injury in an accident. The head is vulnerable even at low speeds.

However even if a rider takes all possible measures, accidents that result in injury or death still happen. If you or a loved one are involved in a motorcycle accident, you will need a lawyer that experienced in personal injury law to help you navigate the legal options that will work for your specific case.
