Revere Police Hand out Bicycle Helmets to Revere Residents as Part of Bike Registration Program

The Revere Police Department will be distributing bicycle helmets and registering bicycles at several locations the month of August. Massachusetts law requires any person 16 years old or younger riding a bicycle to wear a helmet. Bicycles are required to participate. Registration serves as a deterrent to theft and can help in the recovery of stolen bicycles. All ages welcome! Studies show helmet use can reduce the odds of head injuries in accidents by about 50%, and the odds of injuries to the neck, face, and head by 33%. Bike helmets aren’t just for kids – around 87% of all bicycle accident deaths are adults 20 and older.
