Helmet or no Helmet? Protect Yourself and Your Child on Motorcycles


Posted on Nov 23, 2010

How safe is your child in the event of a motorcycle accident in Kansas or Missouri?  It may depend on whether or not you are wearing a helmet.  In nearly all states, minors are required to wear a helmet.  However many states leave it optional for adults.  Many experts are surprised however that the states where there are age specific helmet laws are seeing a higher injury and fatality rate than the states that have universal laws.

Breaking down how helmet laws differ from state to state:

  • Three states don't have any helmet laws- at all.
  • 21 states, including the District of Columbia, have universal helmet laws.
  • 27 states have age-specific laws that require minors but not adults to wear helmets.
Have you or a loved one suffered a serious injury in an accident in Kansas or Missouri, you may be entitled to compensation.  Contact experienced Kansas City Personal Injury Attorney James Roswold.  With over 15 years of experience in motorcycle injury accidents and child injury cases, we may be able to help you and your family determine the best way to proceed with your personal injury claim.
