Yes, it indeed can save your life. The helmet is probably the only thing that can save the person who is involved in an accident. This is because the outer shell is made of strong material that can probably withstand the impact of a collision. When people buy a helmet, putting it on the head won't keep it from coming off if the biker stops suddenly or goes too fast. The only way this can be prevented is having the right lock securing the straps from one end to the other. The right helmet lock should be the kind that has two rings that fasten together. This is because snap fasteners have a tendency to come off during an accident.

Why should you wear a motorcycle helmet?

You wear a motorcycle helmet for the same reason football players wear helmets and faceguards... to avoid concussions and allow them to survive hard impacts to their heads and faces. A full face helmet is better than one of those fashionable half helmets that are just sold to allow people to skirt helmet laws. Plus you should only buy a helmet that is Snell certified, which unlike DOT certification, actually means something. Many people have died from head injuries suffered during a motorcycle crash that otherwise would have resulted only in scratches and bruises, plus, always wear good gear; shorts and a tank top are not good riding gear. If you want an idea of what will happen to your body when you slide across the pavement at 30mph without gear, imagine running a belt sander against your bare arm. A helmet IS the second most important piece of gear you can have when riding, the first is your brain so make sure you protect it. I can't believe why anyone would ask this question.

If you are rock climber and don't use rope to climb... you can be successful 10,000 times yet it only takes one time for you to do something wrong and you look like a pile of spaghetti at the bottom of cliff... If you like taking risks don't do it with a motorcycle ... start dating a married woman...^^Wearing helmet on driving a motorcycle protects the driver when falling to ground to prevent head from being injured.Motorcycle helmets are important to protect the driver's head during any injury. So, one should always choose a helmet that is lightweight and crack resistant.

What is the safest hockey helment?

I did some research after getting a concussion and found that the m11 (designed by mark messier) is different (and better, apparently) in how it distributes force around the head. It is a one piece helmet, as opposed to most hockey helmets which are two pieces. The padding on the inside is also different, and I find it to be more comfortable. The only problem I have is it's a pain to change the size of the helmet. The Harvard hockey team recently switched to the m11, so if the helmet is good enough to protect their brains, it's good enough to protect mine
