Mandatory bike helmets for ALL cyclists, on ALL bikes on ALL terrains

Petition Details

A friend on his bike was hit by a car. He was lucky, he could have died but he HAD a helmet on which saved his life. People are not so lucky if they’re not wearing a helmet.

Additional Information

The Consultant in Neurosciences Intensive Care, Wessex Neurological Centre, "It is my job .... to not only save lives but try to make those lives worth living. Cycle helmets offer vital protection to one’s fragile skull and can save lives and significantly reduce damage to the brain in the event of an impact. If every cyclist wore a helmet the number of cyclists killed or seriously injured each year would be reduced."
