Cycle Helmets: The Case for and AgainstPoročilo temelji na rezultatih raziskav, ki so jih v zvezi s kolesarskimi nesrečami, njihovimi posledicami za kolesarje (poškodbe glave) in uporabo kolesarskih čelad izvedli v raznih državah, predvsem v Veliki Britaniji, ZDA in Avstraliji. Vključuje tudi statistične analize o prometnih nesrečah s poškodbami glave med vsemi skupinami prometnih udeležencev. Sama uporaba kolesarskih čelad ne preprečuje prometnih nesreč in je pri zmanjševanju števila poškodb glave drugotnega pomena. Bistvenega pomena je ustvariti tako okolje, v katerem je manj verjetno, da do nesreče pride. |
