The primary goal of a motorcycle helmet is safety, to protect the rider's head during impact, thus preventing or reducing head injury and saving the rider's life.

People should not have to wear helmets because non-helmet usage dose not cost the government more money then helmet usage in a crash there is no difference between injuries with a helmet and without a helmet, and a helmet limits personal freedom.

of people all over the United States choose motorcycles over automobiles for the thrill, speed, and high performance capabilities.

Injuries to the head are responsible for 76% of fatalities when dealing with motorcycle crashes many of which could have been prevented
Paykel 132FPL4340 The Motorcycle Jacket Introduction The black motorcycle jacket holds both historical and cultural significance. Throughout time, the motorcycle jacket has ‘transitioned from functional wear, to symbol of courage and cool, to iconic expression within popular culture, to flamboyant artistic design in applied arts and fashion’ (Glenbow Museum, 2014). Originally, created to appeal the emerging generation of “bikers” in the 1930s, the leather motorcycle jacket continues to hold
Riding a motorcycle can be a fun and exciting hobby. With gas prices at near all-time highs, it can also be a very economical way of getting around. Unfortunately, it can also be dangerous. In the spring of 2006, my brother received third-degree burns on both legs when the motorcycle he was riding was hit from behind by a straight truck. He was not wearing a helmet at the time of the crash and to this day I have no idea how he lived. He was lucky to have survived, but many others are not. To protect
The Dangers of Motorcycles Today In the history of the Isle of Man TT, there has been 240 rider deaths on the track. This shocking statistic is due to the lack of safety and excess of speed in this 106 year old, 37.7 mile long race across the standard every day roads of the small Island that lies between the UK and Ireland. With speeds topping 200 miles per hour in the straights and 150 in the corners, what is there to help prevent these casualties? The motorcycle safety on the street and track should
A rhetorical analysis of the Utah Public Safety Department’s motorcycle safety advertisement. The U.P.S.D. is trying to reach out to the motorcycle riders in the state of Utah and get these riders to understand that they should wear more protective gear than what is normally worn. Simple yet powerful is this advertisement focusing on the issue of motorcycle riders not wearing protective gear while riding on the public roads and while riding in general. So when a rider gets into an accident and has
Optional Helmet Law Is a Disaster for Pennsylvania 1. September 4, 2003 was a sad day for Pennsylvanians. Governor Rendell signed the new motorcycle helmet law into effect, sentencing riders to death and increasing the tax burden caused by this new law. Pennsylvania is the 31st state to repeal its all-rider helmet law (Berenson 2). The new law states “no helmet is required for a person 21 years of age or older who has been licensed to operate a motorcycle for not less than 2 full calender

In 2013 there were a total of 1028 injuries or deaths in accidents involving motorcycles and drivers without helmets. I believe that if you’re driving or riding on a motorcycle, if should be illegal to drive without a helmet. Many people get severely injured or killed because of something that could easily be prevented, even if it helps a small percentage – that percentage is life-saving. I think of it just like wearing a seat belt, and you can be ticketed for not wearing a seatbelt in the state
The Government Should Mandate Helmet Use for All Cyclists Cuts, bruises and even broken bones will heal, but damage to your brain can last a lifetime. You can prevent possible injuries from unforeseen disasters such as smacking the street, sidewalk, curb, a car, tree or anything else around you by using safety precautions. In some cases, we are required to use safety measures, while in others we are merely advised. For instance, while driving an automobile, the law requires for all occupants
whether or not to wear a helmet while riding a motorcycle has been hot topic since the helmet law went into effect in California in 1992. It seems obvious that wearing a helmet would help protect you in a motorcycle accident. Many legislatures agree. In fact, nineteen states have a mandatory helmet law for all motorcycle riders. Twenty-seven states have a law for those under a set age, three of which require additional insurance for those of age who choose not to wear a helmet. That leaves only four
Evolution of the Motorcycle Rider My first motorcycle was a Kawasaki Eliminator 250 street bike. I consider it to have been my training bike, and it was somewhat generic in the sense that it was not easily identifiable as a member of a specific style of motorcycle. And, more importantly, by associating with other riders, I realized that I was not easily identifiable as a member of a specific class of riders. Riders are a species all their own; and, though there are many sub-classes within
The horrific scene plays out: a motorcycle crashes into a minivan as the motorcycle sped up on a right turn. The person riding the motorcycle is flung out of their riding position and is launched into the air, to land on their arm, breaking it, while the people in the minivan are freaking out over this whole dilemma. Bystanders are calling 911, and a few minutes later, the ambulances arrive. Thankfully, after the paramedics examine the motorcyclist, they realize he has not gotten a concussion, due

I will discuss the monetary and non-monetary benefits, the private costs and benefits and the social costs and benefits. I will also discuss and explain rationality and maximization. Rationality is making a well thought through decision weighing all factors involved. In this

came up with the idea of putting a motor and a bicycle together. Many engine changes were made before the builders were satisfied. In 1903, they created the first Harley-Davidson motorcycle and produced three that year. Harley built its first building in 1907 on Juneau Avenue in Milwaukee. That same year, 150 motorcycles were produced. As they were used for recreational purposes, they were also used in military situations. They proved useful in border skirmishes and the government called for 20,000
