Wearing Helmets: for better, for worse?


There are several laws that talk about the safety of an individual while driving in the streets. Many of these tend to help the people survive in accidents while some would just make the situation worse. Thus, some may take the side of implementing such laws as well as living up to it by their daily lives while some may neglect the law and instead take the risk of not being protected when accidents may occur.

Sadly, in the Philippines, there are a few brands of helmets that could really stand a hard impact but these helmets are very expensive. Due to tight budgeting and poverty that is very rampant in the country, Filipinos tend to buy cheaper ones and would never let you survive in any impact. Some helmets may cover the whole face of the individual wearing it and may not be identified by any person, thus may be prone to criminal crimes such as stealing, snatching, hold-up, raiding and others.

So, are helmets really needed? For safety reasons, yes; but with the poverty in the country and with the bad attitude of our citizens possessed by Satan to do such foolish acts, we might not stand a chance and rather not drive motor cycles anymore.

Other reasons why it’s bad or good to wear a helmet are found on these websites. Some are already researches to answer if the wearing of helmets is really that important.


Good luck and have fun!
