Abstract

The 1990 bicycle helmet surveys of primary and secondary school children cycling to and from school showed that the helmet wearing rates of primary school students have remained stable at 74.8% in the metropolitan area, and increased to 64.4% in the regional centres. The helmet wearing rates for commuter cyclists decreased slightly to 43.5% in the metropolitan area and increased to 14.5% in the regional centres. There has been a significant increase in helmet wearing amongst recreational cyclists in the metropolitan area, to 32.2% but it has remained steady at 17.3% in the regional centres.
