8 year old in bmx bike accident please help!?




kbeaerr


Ok so my mom lets my 8 year old brother go to the skate park alone no helmet or pads she lets him go 4-5 hours everyday almost. He got into a terrible accident there yesterday. My mom got a phone call from 911 telling her they have her son. I do not want him going back!! Write something and i will show her i need to convince her to not let him back


Answer
Um...why would she take any notice of us? I imagine the hospital will be talking to her.

How can I tell what year my helmet was made? I think it was 1985? Is this too old?

I put out a request for a helmet on C.L. and a man was nice enough to give me a helmet for free
that he said was sitting in his garage collecting dust. He said it belonged to his father. I do not
know how long ago it belonged to his father, though. It could have been 2 years, or 20 years ago.
Here is what I found on the helmet: ARAI, F-1, Snell 85, DOT. On the inside of the helmet is
a Snell Memorial Foundation sticker with the stamp of M85 and a serial number of 30830697.
I looked up Snell and it seems to suggest that this is a 1985 helmet. I am sure a lot has changed in helmet technology since that time. Is this helmet worth having?
Thanks.



Answer
That was a very good helmet in its day! Look at what an Arai costs today! 8^P

The outside of the helmet is a plastic or composite (fiberglass) shell. Squeeze the helmet between the heels of you hand in several places and see if it shows any cracks.

Just inside that is a layer of what looks like styrofoam, but stiffer. See if you can feel it under the liner. Is it old and flaky? Or is it still solid and firm?

Does the helmet really fit you? It's not always easy to find one that fits tight enough but still comfortably. With the helmet on your head and the strap fastened, you shouldn't be able to shift it around by grabbing and twisting it.

Some helmet companies refuse to provide service or support for any helmet more than 4 years old! They say this is to force you to take advantage of new advances in technology. But I buy a new helmet every few years and I've never thrown one away. I have three or four of them in the garage, all lined up. And they are still good, even 20 years later. When someone wants to ride on the back of my bike, I give them a choice.
