Once the collision has occurred, or the rider has lost control through some other mishap, several common types of injury occur when the bike falls:
Collision with less forgiving protective barriers, or badly placed roadside “furniture” (lampposts, signs, fences etc.) This is often simply a result of poor road design, and can be engineered out to [...]
Cellular phones can be a lifesaver to drivers. If your vehicle breaks down late at night on a deserted road, help is only a call away — if you have a cell phone. But cell phones and cars don’t always mix. Mobile phones can be a distraction when the driver should be concentrating on [...]
To improve motorcycle safety many developed countries mandate the wearing of protective clothing by motorcyclists, especially a helmet. Other protective gear may include certain types of jackets, gloves, boots, and pants. Jackets meant for motorcyclists are typically made of nylon, leather, or Kevlar. These jackets typically include heavy padding on the elbow, spine, and shoulder [...]
Why are seatbelts, air bags, and other automobile safety restraints so important? Consider this: the National Highway Transportation and Safety Administration (NHTSA) describes what happens to an unbelted passenger during a car accident, and it is as disturbing as it is informative:
Upon impact, the car comes to a sudden stop (one-tenth of a second after [...]

Introduction - Military Police System recently unveiled a must have weapon in the current CQB environment. The company out of Piney Flats, Tennessee has come out with a unique selectable (via a unique trigger) 12-gauge shotgun called the Auto Assault 12 Automatic Shotgun or AA-12 Automatic Shotgun. The AA name originally stood for “Atchisson [...]
Ok, every avid hunter has been shopping to get a new shotgun for hunting, skeets or just a good field gun. I was influenced by price, personal experience and fellow hunters while deciding on what brand name to purchase. However as my hunting experience grew, I was introduced to a variety of manufacturers. We have [...]

Its reliability, ease of use, accuracy and seemingly unlimited supply of tactical accessories have made it the weapon of choice for over 60+ countries. The M16A2 rifle system consists of a rifle, magazine, [...]
Lethal Or Life Saving - A ‘Cause’ Or ‘Extremism’?

So that there are no misunderstandings, here are a few of the things that I believe to be true relative to motorcycle helmets:
More lives have been saved than lost because of wearing helmets.
More injuries have been minimized than exaggerated because of wearing helmets.
More injuries [...]
Modern sniper rifles
last updated: 26 jan 2001
The main purpose of the sniper rifle is to destroy valuable targets at
extended ranges with aimed fire, and with as few ammunition
as possible. In most cases, “the target” means the human being (enemy
soldier, armed criminal, terrorist, president etc.), and
the “as few ammunition as possible” often means “one shot”. The [...]

(recently) hard plastics still in great demand not only in military forces
and police departments ALL around the world? The answers are: They are
small, lightweight (well, most of them and provide good firepower;
suitable, not only for defensive situations, but for offensive ones, and
even [...]

Of all the things that we learn being out on the streets with our bikes, one stands out as the all time life-saver in my book.
If you can avoid it, never enter an intersection without another vehicle on your right side.
(It should be noted that this advice assumes you ride in [...]
I have read that mounting a motorcycle from the right side is ‘OK’ and for proof the poster pointed out that the motorcycle police in California are required to do so.
While I believe it is true that at least the California Highway Patrol requires their motorcycle officers to use the right side to both mount [...]
If there is one thing I have learned from action movies, it is that one time or the other; the good guy must learn to run away from trouble. Okay! I know this might sound like a contradiction, but it is true.
Let me prove it to you with a simple test.
In most action movies, when there is a [...]

Defensive driving is a form of training for motor vehicle drivers that goes beyond mastery of the rules of the road and the basic mechanics of driving. Its aim is to reduce the risk of driving by anticipating dangerous situations, despite adverse conditions or the mistakes of others. This can be achieved through adherence to [...]

And, with the colder weather the odds are that many of you have begun wearing leather chaps and heavier jackets. Though pretty expensive, there’s ample proof that these provide far more than protection from the cold.In studies of ’survivability’ of various garment materials to a 50 MPH ride on asphalt, for example, [...]
