  • High quality helmets could have saved drivers - studies

    (EMAILWIRE.COM, July 07, 2010 ) New Smyrna Beach, FL - Studies on motorcycle accidents conclude that high quality motorcycle helmets could have saved drivers who met accidents on the road. Sadly, there are some factors why motorcycle drivers choose low quality helmets or do not wear any protection on their heads at all.

    The first factor that causes death on motorcycle accidents is the use of mediocre helmets. Many manufacturers and distributors of low quality motorcycle helmets are selling their products at very low prices. Some helmets have thinner cushions; some have eye protection that is not clear. This causes blurred vision and discomfort while driving.

    The second factor that causes death on motorcycle accidents is the driversÂ’ disregard of the safety measures. Most drivers know what they must do to be safe on the road, but they take these precautions for granted. They disregard the importance of defensive driving and use of protective gears, especially helmets.

    The third factor is the high cost of standard quality helmets. There are two reasons why these helmets cost much. First is because the materials used for maximum protection costs higher than substandard ones. However, it does not mean that the prices must skyrocket to the point of being unaffordable for low-income drivers. Second is the manufacturersÂ’ and distributorsÂ’ desire to earn more, capitalizing on the quality of the helmets. Some of them want to earn more in the shortest period.
    It is good that there are still some people who value lives more than money in their bank accounts. These people are honest businessmen who are satisfied with an average income because they know that more people need their products. One such good example is the Discount Helmet Factory Corp. Their website, http://discounthelmetfactory.com, offers search for websites offering discounted high quality helmets. Drivers can also search for designs that suit their needs and style.
    Another good thing about this website is their lists of sponsors who are all carefully chosen. The first and foremost criterion for selection is the proven quality of their products. The publishers of this website checked reviews of their sponsorsÂ’ products. When they see that these manufacturers can be trusted, they start negotiations for sponsorship. The drivers can be certain that the list offers standard quality helmets only.

    The research also indicates that 75 percent of motorcycle accidents involve crash with another vehicle. Almost 25 percent of the crashes are single vehicle accidents. Motorcycle rider errors caused 67 percent of these cases. They also found out that the most common spot for motorcycle crashes are the intersections. Ages 16-24 are dominant in these accidents and almost 97 percent of them are male. They also found out that alcohol is involved in almost half of all the motorcycle accidents.
    The studies also emphasized checking the motorcycle functional parts carefully. They must check the breaks, the tires, and other protective gears. Safety precautions must be taken seriously, because lives can be endanger by careless driving. It is not only their lives that are at stake, but othersÂ’ too.
