Teach Your Kids To Wear Crash Helmets All The Time

Shocking footage of a child colliding with a car.
Its the sort that parents would not like to see happen to their children.
What it does do is make you think that you should teach the children to always wear a crash helmet every time they get on their bikes.
Luckily the girl never sustained serious injuries.

Ouch!
Nasty but I think the kid will be more embarrassed by the injury being in an awkward spot than anything else.
Yes, crash helmets will keep the kids safer.
Again though, I think we should educate rather than force people to wear them.

Oh my God.
That accident did look a bit ugly so its good to see that no serious injuries were sustained.
It does show that wearing crash helmets is worthwhile.
Because having a cycle doesn't involve a licence you can't impose laws, so I understand.
Saying that, you are obliged to have lights on your bike at night so I don't know if the above is 100% true.

I think that it looks and sounds worse than it actually is.
There is no doubt though that putting crash helmets on a child is the way to go, especially after seeing that video.

That accident looked bad.
The parents will probably have this video for life

That didn't look nice at all.

Having the kids to think its "trendy" to wear bash helmets would be the thing to do rather than "force" them to do something.
I am not sure about "shocking" them with films like this would be the way to go.
The reason is we have all been lead through fear and look where that got us!

That video shows an accident at slow speeds.
What would it have been like had the car been doing 30 MPH
