Correct answer
considerably reduces the risk of suffering fatal injuries.
An approved helmet of the right size, correctly worn and fastened, reduces the risk and severity of head injuries and can prevent fatal injury. It does not remove every risk or guarantee survival after every impact. Reduction figures depend on the study and measured outcome and must not be treated as a fixed individual guarantee. Ride prudently and inspect or replace the helmet according to manufacturer instructions, especially after impact.
