helmet protective

Helmets and motorcyclist protective equipment: helmet effectiveness in reducing head injury, protective-gear injury mitigation, and helmet-use compliance. Crash-injury MITIGATION through worn equipment, distinct from rider skill (motorcyclist_skill), being seen in traffic (motorcycle_conspicuity), machine handling (motorcycle_handling), and how crashes are categorized (motorcycle_crash_typology).
