This report examined the helmet use of motorcycle riders 21 and
older involved in fatal crashes. The analysis is based on data from
the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's Fatality
Analysis Reporting System (FARS) over the years 1997-2006. Crashes
were separated into two categories: (a) single-vehicle motor
crashes and (b) two-vehicle crashes involving one passenger vehicle
and one motorcycle. A logistic regression model was constructed to
perform a multivariate analysis that examined the relationship
between a motorcycle rider's helmet use and many other factors.
