Street Bike Helmet

Learning to ride a bicycle is an important part in the development of every child, but now they are coming Easter holidays, take note that this activity involves some risk. Below are given some common myths, according to the American Academy of Pediatrics that take into account and to reduce the risk of accidents. Fact: Your child (a) need to wear a street bike helmet whenever riding a bicycle, no matter how close they leave home. Many of the falls occur at the entrances to garages, sidewalks and bike paths, not just on the street. In fact, most bicycle crashes occur near home. Wearing a street bike helmet will protect your child (a) serious injury, so you should always use. And remember, wearing a street bike helmet at all times helps children to encourage the habit. Reaidad: Only bicycle helmets are made specifically for head protection in any crash while riding. Other types of helmets are made to protect the head from other types of injuries. Never let your child (a) use a different type of street bike helmet when riding a bicycle unless it is a multi-sports street bike helmet cycling certified by the Security Commission or NOM. Fact: The larger size bikes are especially dangerous from. Your child (a) does not have the dexterity or coordination needed to handle a larger bike, so you could lose control. Your child (a) be able to sit in the seat, hands on the handlebars and front to put both feet on the ground (not just the toes). The child's first street bike helmet (a) should also be equipped with foot brakes, since the muscles and coordination of the hands of the children are not developed enough to control the brakes. Fact: Your child should always go right, direction of traffic. Going against the flow of traffic confuses or surprises drivers. Almost a quarter of bicycle crashes with motor vehicles because the cyclists are going against the flow of traffic. Reality: Make hand signals is an important part of traffic rules and taught to all children to make hand signals before they go on a bicycle down the street. The hand signals are an important form of communication between cyclists and motorists. For starters, any child who does not have the necessary skills to make hand signals or roll over without falling sharply, must ride through the streets. Much of the shocks that have older children occur when they do not signal to motorists on what they intend to do. Myth: The bicycle reflectors and reflective vests make it safe for my child (a) ride a bicycle at dusk or at night. Fact: It is never safe for your child (a) ride a street bike helmet at night. Riding at night requires biciceta particualr have skills and special equipment that very few young people have. Never let your child (a) ride a bicycle at dusk or at night. Myth: I need to teach my child all these safety rules. I never hurt me as a child (a). Biking is fun. Fact: Bicycling is fun, if done safely. Unfortunately, most people do not realize that each year hundreds of thousands of children are seriously injured after falling off the street bike helmet What is even worse, more than 600 children die from these falls every year. Although uest could have been lucky enough to survive childhood without suffering serious injuries related to bicycle use should not expect that the same fate will protect your child (a).
