According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), each year, motorcycle helmets reduce the chance of death in an accident by an estimated 37%. Wearing a helmet can also help prevent severe head trauma by as much as 69%. Tragically, in an accident in Tucson that happened earlier this month, the lives of two people may have been saved if they had chosen to wear helmets.
KVOA in Tucson reported on its website that on Saturday, Jun 13th, 56-year-old William Dale Reynolds and his wife, 46-year-old Michelle Lynn Reynolds, were riding their motorcycle along Aviation Parkway when the crash occurred.

Investigators with the Tucson Police Department told reporters that neither victim had been wearing a helmet at the time of the crash. Authorities also found that William Reynolds had been operating the motorcycle while under the influence of alcohol.
