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.
