Abstract

Motorcycle/car accidents are complex and difficult to analyse. Intention of this study is to describe and analyse two major types of accidents, intersection and head-on collision. In order to evaluate the energy absorption characteristics of helmets, high-speed films and acceleration data are used. Protection capacity of helmets was studied in more detail.
