The head and brain are most vulnerable to injury in a motorcycle accidents, when drivers and passengers wear helmets they increase their chance of survival significantly over non helmet wearers.
It is so important for motorcyclists to understand well the risks of riding without wearing a helmet. Riders who don't wear helmets are at risk of suffering a traumatic brain injury in an accident. Without protection(Safety gear), the head is vulnerable to a traumatic impact in an accident even traveling at low speed.
