It is almost impossible to escape injuries in bicycle or motorcycle accidents. Riders are therefore encouraged to wear safety helmets all the time. Helmets save lives by reducing the severity of head injuries in the event of a collision. Should you be involved in a bicycle accident, you are encouraged to report to notify the authorities who will then issue you with a written report of the incident.
