This report provides information on the relationship between motorcycle helmet laws and usage, describes more than a decade of motorcycle accident experience in Michigan, and examines the relation between helmet usage and the cost of injury and the incidence and severity of injuries to the head, face, and neck. A description of the fatal accident experience of Michigan over the last twelve years is provided, along with a study of all motorcycle accidents which have occurred from 1978 through 1982. The National Accident Sampling System (NASS) provides nationally representative information on traffic accidents that includes detailed injury descriptors and the costs of trauma as measured by length of hospital stay and days work lost. The consequences of motorcycle accidents as they are related to helmet use is evaluated using the NASS data of 1980 and 1981.
