Motorcyclists comprise a third of all road traffic deaths in the South-East Asia and Western Pacific Regions. Head and neck injuries are the main cause of severe injury, disability and death of motorcycle users. The paper aims to study rider behavior and driving habits, mainly towards the use of safety gear, it also suggests a possible solution to the identified problems by means of new concepts and design modification in the vehicle. The suggested feature would help to reduce two-wheeler fatalities and will give a safe vehicle to society.
