BDifficulty 2/5

In a motorcycle crash, which of these behaviours particularly increases the risk of serious or fatal head injury?

Correct answer

Not wearing a helmet.

Not wearing an approved or certified helmet of the right size, properly fastened. A helmet reduces the risk and severity of head injury, but does not prevent every injury or replace safe riding. Gloves and protective clothing also matter for other body areas; omitting them is not safe. Facial protection depends on helmet type.
