Do Texas Motorcycle Helmets Reduce Personal Injuries, Deaths and State Costs As Well?

Nationally, says the CDC, helmets lowered deaths by 37 percent for motorcycle drivers and 41 percent for passengers, and that meant 1,544 fewer motorcyclist fatalities in 2010. Over 40 percent of motorcyclists killed in accidents between 2008 and 2010 were not wearing a helmet, says the CDC report. In states where helmets are not required, 79 percent of the motorcyclists killed were not wearing one, compared to 12 percent in states where helmets are the law.

In Texas, motorcyclists value their freedom and we understand that. But we want everyone out there on the road to be safe and this study sheds new light on how helmet-use yields financial benefits shared by everyone-legislators, citizens and bikers alike.
