Helmets for All: Robert J. DeBry’s Save a Life Helmet Safety Campaign

“Please visit our offices in St.George or Salt Lake City to pick up yours today, and don’t forget our adult size helmets are only $10.”

A well-fitting helmet is an invaluable part of any cyclist’s everyday attire. Bicycling is the leading sport for traumatic brain injuries, with twice as many reported head injuries as football for children under 14. Overwhelmingly, cyclists who sustain traumatic brain injuries are those who don’t wear helmets: Approximately 75 percent of cyclists who sustain serious head injuries were not wearing helmets at the time of the incident.

Wearing a helmet can help save a life. Across studies, bicycle helmets have been shown to reduce the risk of traumatic head injury by 10 to 40 percent depending on the type of crash. Avoid serious injury in an auto accident — and a call to your local lawyer — by properly wearing your helmet.

Not every bicyclist owns a helmet, but Robert J. DeBry is here to help. In order to protect against injury in the event of an auto accident or collision, your lawyer friends at Robert J. DeBry are providing bicycle helmets at a reduced cost through the Save a Life Helmet Safety Campaign. Anyone in the Salt Lake City or St. George, Utah area can purchase high-quality children’s helmets for only five dollars, or adult helmets for $10. All helmets are certified by the Consumer Product Safety Commission.

In addition to discounted bike helmets, we also provide important bicycle safety tips for Utah families. The bicycling safety brochure is free to anyone who visits either our Salt Lake City or St. George lawyer offices, and includes valuable information on how to properly select and fit your child’s bike helmet.

According to a national survey, only 48 percent of children ages 5–14 wear bicycle helmets. However, the good news is that adults who wore a helmet when they were younger are significantly more likely to wear a helmet in adulthood. Start your children wearing helmets early — you’ll increase their chances of walking away from an auto accident unscathed.

Whether you live in Salt Lake City or elsewhere in Utah, wearing helmets saves lives. Reduce your chances of traumatic brain injury by wearing your helmet properly, no matter what the situation.
