Question: Why must I wear a helmet?When man was created, he was quipped with a skull to protect his brain. This original protection measure " set-up" was effective in the then soft environment which was man's normal habitat'. As man evolved, he started by taming the horse, as he outgrew the speed capability of the horse, he began searching for faster modes of travel. He first developed the steam engine, followed by the internal combustion engine and then the turbine. Man, while he has succeeded in propelling himself at speeds that would have scared his ancestors, has also changed his surroundings to hard unyielding surfaces both horizontal and vertical.Unfortunately, he has not been able to transform himself to the protective needs of his new lifestyle and environment. The helmet is, therefore, necessary and just a link in the long chain of safety equipment and counter measures man has to use in his present surroundings.
Question: Why do Governments make Helmet use compulsory ?
The wealth of any nation is in its people. With the continuing popularity of the two-wheeler amongst college going youth and executive cadre, it is necessary for the government to protect its intelligentsia and prevent "brain drain" of another sort. Helmets are made mandatory by law, since statistical studies conducted almost all over the world have proven beyond any doubt that " a helmet is the single most effective counter measure against brain injury in the life of a two wheeler user."Additionally safety measures in every form are never implemented unless the government has enforced them.
Helmets to be Compulsory for Scooter and Motorcycle Riders and pillion passengers from 1st April 2005, in Mumbai and Thane Districts and progressively at other places in Maharashtra over the next four months.( Maharashtra Govt. notification no. MVA/0588/CR5700/764-A/TRA-2 Dated 17/01/2005)Each scooter and motorcycle rider and pillion passenger in Maharashtra will have to own a helmet sooner or later. Violators will be charged U/sec.177 of M.V.Act-1988 for which fine is Rs.100/- for each person. (Rider and Pillion Rider)
Question: How does a helmet work?The brain is the most delicate organ in the human body, which is suspended within the skull in a fluid called the Cerebral Spinal Fluid (CSF).When the skull is hit, it accelerates and moves towards the suspended brain, until the pressures within the skull move the brain forward in the CSF. When the skull is stopped, ( as in a motorcycle accident ),the brain being suspended continues its forward motion, and depending upon the speed during impact, the forward moving brain will touch the inside of the skull and can be damaged. The brain is said, in such a case, to have suffered from linear concussion, and penetration from protruding objects and to stay fastened position in the event of an accident.Energy management, as we call it in the helmet trade, is the management of the energy that must be dissipated, so that the brain is never subjected to damage from contraction the skull. To achieve this, we construct a skull, rather a very rigid shell from fiberglass, or thermoplastic. The inside of the helmet is lined with expanded polystyrene (EPS ) of controlled density. The shape and thickness of this EPS liner as well as its density is of paramount importance. Under an accident impact condition, the shell of the helmet behaves like the skull; the EPS liner like the CSF and the skull is treated in the same way as nature intended it to treat the brain.In case of an accident
a) The helmet strikes the road, curb of whatever and comes to a stop. Momentarily.( Measured in milliseconds.)b) The skull and brain are still in motion.c) The EPS begins crushing progressively.d) The skull is not permitted to stop "suddenly", by the crushing EPS.e) The brain is also slowing progressively within the CSF and the job is done.All of the above happens very quickly (within milliseconds) and that is how a helmet works.
Questions: What comprises a good helmet?Good helmet have fiberglass or thermoplastic outer shells. EPS (Thermocole) is considered to be the best energy absorbing liner available and must be present in the helmet.Nylon or Terylene woven tape of tubular instruction is found to be the best for chinstraps.Steel Anchor plates are a must for securing the chinstraps to the shell. Fastening by double "D" rings; bar-n-buckle or all metal clasps are most secure.Rivets of copper or brass are best for fixing anchor plates to the shell.The helmet must fit snugly and not wobble or move, ones fastened on the head. Beadings, paints etc. are frills that are applied to promote the helmet. Look for these features in a helmet before making your choice.Question: Why must I wear a helmet then I do not normally exceed 55 km while riding?At 55 kmph you are traveling at 49 feet per second i.e. the speed at which you will hit the ground if you jump out a window on the fourth floor of a building. Must I say more????Question: What is the lifetime of a helmet and how should a helmet be handled?A helmet, since it is constructed from plastics, i.e. thermoplastics: ABS, Polycarbonate, Polypropelene or thermosets i.e. Fibreglass reinforced plastics, are subject to change from exposure to ultra-violet and infrared rays in sunlight.A helmet should be replaced every two or three years, However, if a helmet has been involved in an impact, it must be changed without question. DON'T TAKE CHANCES.Don't drop it; Keep it out of reach of children. Don't press the EPS liner inside, don't carry groceries in it. Clean it regularly.Question: Do helmets cause balding?Not at all, this aspect of helmets was studied in the U.K. in 1981 by a leading authority on baldness and a consultant dermatologist Dr. Arthur Rook. It was found that the wearing of helmets does NOT promote balding.Question: Do Helmets impair hearing?You will be interested to learn of findings from a study conducted at the California Institute of Technology and the USDA forests service. At highway speeds (approximately 80 kmph) wind noise levels with a helmet on, can reach 100 db (A) which is the permitted mechanical sound level of a motorcycle sold in the USA). In case you feel then, that riding without a helmet is better, let me hasten to inform you, which at the same speed the wind noise level without a helmet are 120 db (A).So, to come back to the original question, you can now see that what may appear to be a loss of hearing while wearing a helmet in a stationary situation is actually quite the reverse while in motion on a motorcycle.
Question: How should a helmet fit?A helmet must fit snugly, rather, slightly tightly than comfortably. After fastening the chin strap, push back on the front of the helmet, if it sides back on your head, select one that grips well and does not wobble and move when worn.Question: Do we have a safety standard for motorcycle helmet?Yes, we do. There is an Indian Standard Specification for motorcycle helmets, IS 4151. There are other IS standards for police, industrial and mining helmets too. These helmets are constructed very differently from motorcycle helmets and cannot be depended for protection in a motorcycle accident situation. The two energy management requirements of these two end uses are poles apart. I will explain.a. In the case of the police, industrial or mining helmet, the helmet in expected to protect the wearer from objects coming towards him, projectiles like stones or bricks for the police, and nuts or bolts etc. in industrial usage.b. In the cast of the motorcyclist, the helmet must protect him when he is the projectile going to hit a solid object.ADVICE WHILE BUYING HELMETCheck for ISI 4151. Industrial and Miners' helmets have different ISI standards that are no approved for two wheeler use.Take time to check proper fitting. A tight helmet will give you a headache. A loose helmet will wobble every time your bike crosses a bump on the road. Ensure a comfortable fit.Try on the helmet before a mirror. You will see how the helmet suits your personality.Buy from a reputed dealer displaying "Authorized Dealer" Certificate. Also select a dealer who offers you an opportunity to choose between several brands of helmets.Never buy a helmet from a roadside hawker. It would most likely be a squrious product with a false ISI marking.Insist on a proper printed Bill of sale showing the correct brand and model. Never buy a helmet without a Bill. Do not accept a "Quotation" in place of a Bill. Preserve the Bill.Ask for the instruction card provided with each helmet by the manufacturer. Follow the instructions on the card for proper use and maintenance of the helmet.Buy a Helmet Lock. You will not have to carry about your helmet when not in use.Compulsion or not, always use a helmet when using a scooter or a motorcycle, either as a rider or as a pillion passenger. Remember that the life of the pillion passenger is as precious as that of the rider. Buy more than on helmet if necessary.
