A defective helmet can lead to the following injuries:
- Skull Fracture
- Concussion
- Brain Injury
- Facial Injury
- Death
Bicycle and motorcycle helmets are designed to withstand the force of a heavy impact. All helmets are built featuring two essential protective components - a hard outer protective shell and a soft inner lining. The inner lining of a helmet is not only designed for comfort, but also to prevent brain injury. In fact, the primary purpose of a helmet is not to prevent a skull fracture, but rather, to keep the brain from moving violently within the skull and causing a closed head injury.
In cases where a defective helmet is used, the helmet fails to properly insulate the brain from internal injury. The manufacturer may be responsible in the event that a bicycle or motorcycle helmet fails to protect you or a loved one from harm. The injuries brought about by a defective injury can have life-long and severely debilitating effects. Additionally, the treatment of such injuries can impose a heavy financial burden. A personal injury helmet claim may help you overcome some of these obstacles and provide you or a loved one with some measure of relief.
