1.5 MILLION HEAD INJURIES ANNUALLY. . . INDIA IS THE HEAD INJURY CAPITAL OF THE WORLD

�INTERNATIONAL BRAIN INJURY ASSOCIATION: WHY ONLY PUBLISH US AND EUROPEAN STATISTICS?

In India, 1 out of 6 trauma victims die, while in the United States this figure is 1 out of 200. This seemingly

unbreachable gap speaks volumes of the perfected PTC procedures in US and their near absence in India.

“I slide it on my head only at junctions where I am sure the traffic cops will be.”

Murali Srihdar, Bangalore DNA India

In India, all two-wheeler drivers and pillion riders have to use helmets under section 129 of the Motor Vehicles Act (1988). However, following vehement opposition from the public, the regulation is hardly enforced in the state.

“I believe that most of the teenagers or some adults do not wear helmet because by doing so their look will be effected while driving bikes.” -Vikas

teens TALK

“You get up in the morning, freshen up and go to your office in a bike. Humidity sucks the the water out of your body. When your face is covered with a helmet, the sweat doesn’t escape and finally you end up all tired when you reach the office.” -Pankil

“But, people, especially the young generation thinks that not wearing helmet is a style. Boys want to impress the girls.” -Madhvee

“Many of the people think that buying helmet is a wastage of money. . .many forget to wear. . . some feel lazy.” -K. Mohan

IN INDIA, HELMETS ARE STILL LEGALLY OPTIONAL FOR WOMEN.

"The figures show that women die in accidents for not wearing helmets. Many lives could have been saved if they wore helmets, which are essential for both drivers and pillion riders on two-wheelers."

-Joint Commissioner of Police Satyendra Garg

In a new study published in the

Canadian Medical Association Journal, University of Toronto family doctor lecturer

and St. Michael’s Hospital associate scientist Navindra

Persaud concludes that helmets help prevent fatalities — something he says until now was

“controversial.”

why bother?no one is looking

The man, identified by India's Prokelara News as Kanhaiyalal Raigher had driven his motorbike into a tunnel, where it was hit by a truck. His wife and two children were riding pillion, and both his spouse and young daughter were killed in the accident.

Police officials say that women drivers are as vulnerable to road accidents as males and helmets are equally important for them. In fact, women pillion riders are more exposed to the risk of head injury as they have nothing to hold on to and they risk falling in the middle of traffic.

Suddenly, changemakers around the world can shoot high-quality video, and distribute it globally via the Internet. By offering NGOs cost-effective training and models of video production, Video Volunteers aims to make video a ubiquitous tool in the work of social change.”

Nike was not an official sponsor of the Olympics, but they might as well have been.  Their innovative approach in London is already shaping the future of sports marketing.
