Sam Levine http://www.samlevine.com/ Bicycling is a fun, clean, affordable, and healthy mode of transportation that over 80 million people take part in each year. In fact, 30% of the U.S. population rides some sort of bicycle and 45% of bicycle owners ride it occasionally. Yet, riding a bike does come with its dangers and risks. Over 600 bicyclists a year die on the roads. However, bicycle related injuries can be prevented.

The most common injury from a bike related accident is TBI - traumatic brain injury. These injuries not only account for 67% of bicycle-related admissions to hospitals, but also for over 62% of bicycle-related deaths. These numbers are staggering on their own considering that traumatic brain injuries are not only deadly, but can also be a debilitating affliction that comes with a long rehabilitation and care from specialty facilities like CareMerdian. However, these numbers are even more astounding when taking into account that wearing a bicycle helmet could easily prevent TBI.

Wearing a bicycle helmet is not something that every bicyclist should do, but rather is something that every bicyclist must do. Wearing a helmet reduces the risk of a TBI by almost 90%, thus practically eradicating the instance of TBI as a result of a collision. Most states do require that cyclists wear a helmet when riding, but unfortunately most children (and almost all teenagers) ride without one. Yet, with the life long damage that is caused from TBI it is not only important that a helmet is worn, but it’s vital. Helmets ensure that riding a bike is not only a fun, healthy, and affordable mode of transportation, but also is a safe one.

Sam Levine http://www.samlevine.com/ Last Saturday, as was mentioned earlier in the week, several people were killed and injured in a head on collision car wreck in Johns Creek, Georgia when a driver, Raymond Myrand, drove the wrong way on State Bridge Road and slammed into the vehicle driven by Kelly Robertson. In Kelly Robertson's vehicle, was her twelve year old, both of whom were life-flighted to area hospitals. The 12 year old is still hospitalized because of the serious nature of his injuries attributable to the auto accident, although he is expected to make a full recovery. What kind of permanent injuries he has sustained because of the car wreck is yet to be determined.

It is now being reported that Kelly Robertson, only 41 years of age, has died because of her injuries in the head on collision car accident. Sadly, this is yet another deadly car accident that has occurred in the past few weeks in the Metro Atlanta area that has involved a wrong-way motorist. A couple days before Thanksgiving, Robert Ayiteyfio was driving intoxicated the wrong way on I-20 East in Atlanta before crashing into Shameyka Welch, resulting in the death of the 24 year old and mother of four. Injured in the deadly car accident were two of Welch's children and her boyfriend. Mr. Ayiteyfio fled the accident scene, but was later caught charged with DUI and vehicular homicide.

Last Tuesday, On December 8th, Jahan Zackery lost his life in another deadly head on collision car wreck when Theus Monroe, traveled the wrong way on a downtown Atlanta connector while drunk.
