A helmet is one of the most effective ways to reduce a head injury from bicycle crashes. Kids should wear helmets when biking, skating or operating a scooter.
In Southlake, the City requires kids 18 years and under to wear a bicycle helmet.
Before you go shopping for your new headgear, here are a few helpful tips:
- Choose the correct helmet based on the type of activity.
- Make sure the helmet is the right fit and meets the S. Consumer Product Safety Commission’s (CPSC) standards.
- Allow your child to select the helmet design because they are more likely to wear it.
