Helmet Color and Vehicle Condition Affect Safety on the Road

As riders, we understand that a helmet plays a crucial role in enhancing safety and minimizing the impact of a head injury in the event of an accident. However, did you know that the color of your helmet can also affect the chances of an accident?

According to research conducted in New Zealand:
1. People who wear ‘white’ helmets are 24% less likely to have an accident than people who wear ‘black’ helmets.
2. People who wear ‘light’ helmets are 19% less likely to have an accident than people who wear ‘dark’ helmets.

The information shared above is just one factor influencing driving safety. At CAMEL TIRE, we emphasize that driving behavior and ensuring your vehicle is in good condition are equally important. This includes regularly checking the tires, which are the only parts in constant contact with the road.
