What is one of the most frequent causes of death in motorcycle or moped accidents?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is not wearing a helmet. According to DGT statistics and international bodies, head injuries are the main cause of death among users of two-wheeled vehicles. The helmet is the most important passive safety element, since it absorbs a large part of the impact energy and prevents direct abrasion against the asphalt. Although being run over or hitting the ground are mechanisms of the accident, what determines to the greatest extent whether the outcome is fatal is the lack of head protection.
