Every year hundreds of bicycle riders are injured and killed on U.S. roads. In 2011 there were over 700 bicyclists killed in the nation, while there were over 48,000 injured. Many of these injuries occurred on Henderson roads. There are many precautions bicycle riders can take to help ensure that they will have the maximum chance of safely enjoying their bike riding experiences. But, in real life, things may go wrong. Though no one takes to the roads on a bicycle with the intention of falling or getting into an accident, these kinds of possibilities do happen. For this reason, it is recommended that bicyclists, both child and adult, always wear a bicycle helmet when on Henderson roads.
Purchasing a bicycle helmet can be a pleasurable experience which reaffirms your commitment to bicycle safety. But, every helmet is not made for everyone. It is important that you properly choose a bike helmet which is right for you. Take a look at the following video for some pointers which will help you properly fit a bike helmet.
Of the many fatal bicycle accidents which occur on Henderson roads, and roads across the nation, many are preventable. Drivers sharing the roads with bicyclists should remember to be respectful of them, and share the roads.
