According to this link, http://www.brainandspinalcord.org/brain-injury/index.html,
50% to 70% of brain injuries are the result of car accidents. Other causes include slips and falls, violence, and sports accidents. So most sports should require the use of a helmet, but it would be hard to prevent injury from all activities with helmets since the other leading causes can happen at any time.
No bike helmets don't reduce the number of bike accidents, but they do reduce the serious injuries related to the accidents. Bike helmets save lives.
Safety devices are used to protect individuals or property from harm, injury, or damage. They can include items like fire extinguishers, smoke detectors, safety goggles, seat belts, and helmets. Safety devices are designed to minimize risks and prevent accidents from occurring.
You obviously don't know much about sport if you don't know helmets are needed to protect the head from injury.
Yes. You badly need them when you race or when you go biking. They are worn for protection. If in case there are accidents, your head will not suffer from too much injuries. Other states already made a law regarding helmets.
Probably fairly rare. Most racers wear helmets and most walk away from accidents. I would not be caught dead on a motorcycle or race car without a helmet.
A whole lot of accidents happen, here's a fact: 1,829 bikers were saved by their motorcycle helmets during crashes in 2008 - and almost 1,000 more could have been saved had they worn helmets. Here's another fact: One of three accidents happen due to drug abuse. The sad part is, now the law says we don't have to wear helmets. I hope this answered your question. Remember, if you have a motorcycle, wear a helmet, drive safe, probably a good idea not to take drugs, and you may have saved yourself. :)
About 5,000 people a year die in motorcycle accidents. Many of these are not wearing a motorcycle helmet when they crash.
Xare is a racquet sport. Xare players wear helmets and face each other.
we all know that our head is a sensitive part, when the head is cut off we die. when bike accidents occur there is more likely of head injury, so we wear bike helmets. I think i have answered ur question

Billions of teens die yearly because of the motor accidents, these days girls are more susceptible because they drive slower vehicles such as scooties, and people generally try to follow or overtake them . One can avoid the accidents by wearing helmets, being vigilant on road, not listening to music while driving
In some states that don't have specific mandatory laws in requiring people to wear motorcycle helmets regardless of their age, you have to be at least 18 years old to be able to ride motorcycle without wearing motorcycle helmets. But it is highly advisable that you wear one to avoid injuries from motorcycle accidents.
