N2  - This paper presents the results of studies conducted in Delhi, India, on the pattern of motorized-two-wheeler and helmet use patterns, injuries to two-wheeler crash victims hospitalized in a neurosurgery ward, police reported fatal crashes and biomechanical evaluation of crash involved motorcycle helmets. The results indicate that in the absence of a law, education alone does not convince riders to use helmets in Delhi and that lack of driver training does not seem to be a factor contributing to serious injury and fatal crashes. Conspicuity and better helmet design are the two most important safety measures for motorcycle and scooter riders. (Author/TRRL)<p />
