Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication is part of WP.29. 'How it works and how to join it' series. It examines issues, progress and challenges in efforts to improve the safety and wellbeing of motorcycle riders through the use of approved motorcycle helmets. The growth in motorcycles is accompanied by an increase in serious and fatal accidents. Evidence shows that once internationally harmonized helmet regulations, such as the UN Regulation No. 22 type-approval system for helmets, are in place and laws on helmet wearing are enforced, these trends tend to reverse. In examining the relationship of income growth and national motorcycle fleet expansion, this study argues the socio-economic case for introduction of helmet regulations and their enforcement by delivering a benefit-cost analysis of taking such legislative actions.

Book excerpt: This second edition of Helmets: a road safety manual for decision-makers and practitioners has updated the evidence on risk factors and interventions for helmet use. The manual is aimed at policy-makers and road safety practitioners and draws on experience from countries that have succeeded in promoting helmet use. The effectiveness of helmets in reducing head injuries and preventing death has been established by several found by several studies. However, ensuring the use of helmets requires additional interventions. These include developing and passing a law for helmet use among PTW users, developing helmet standards suitable for all age groups and appropriate for the local weather, enforcement of the law by police, and education programmes to increase awareness of the law and benefits from its compliance.

Experimental research into skull bone strength, transmission of impact force from the lower jaw to the intracranial space, properties of protective helmet lining materials and headforms for helmet testing. Laboratory simulation of sliding and rotational accelerations of the head indicate a need to revise the Australian Standards for protective helmets to provide improved protection to facial and temporal areas, to soften protective helmet liners and improve sliding properties of helmets. The optimal requirements for childrens bicycle helmets need to be defined in terms of helmet mass stiffness of child skull bone. Bicycle accidents. Injuries. Motorcycle accidents. Standards.
