Helmets....!!!!


Helmets are worth saving a life from injuries when caused during accidents. Hence government has brought strict laws enforcing people to wear helmets. A full face motorcycle helmet covers the entire head, with a rear that covers the base of the skull, and a protective section over the front of the chin. Such helmets have an open cutout in a band across the eyes and nose, with a plastic face shield (which may be clear or tinted) that generally swivels up and down to allow access to the face. Many full face helmets include vents to increase the airflow to the rider.

The significant attraction of these helmets is their protectiveness. Some critics dislike the increased heat, sense of isolation, lack of wind, and alleged reduced hearing of such helmets. Full face motorcycle helmets intended for off-road use sometimes omit the face shield but extend the visor and chin portions.
