Bicyclists, Helmets and Head Injuries: A Rider-Based Study of Helmet Use and Effectiveness.
Wasserman, Richard C.; And Others
American Journal of Public Health, v78 n9 p1220-1 Sep 1988
Of 516 bicyclists interviewed, 19 percent owned helmets but only eight percent were wearing them. Riders wearing helmets were more highly educated and reported higher car seat belt use. Helmets afford protection from bicycling head injuries. (Author/BJV)
