A college student and avid motorcyclist has created a prototype helmet that uses technology in hopes of keeping bikers safer than they've ever been on the roads
Ty Uehara, a junior computer science major at the University of Hawaii at Manoa, rides a motorcycle for transportation and as a way to relax. But the 21-year-old told CNN one of his friends recently had an accident while riding and suffered a broken pelvis and tailbone. His friend couldn't call for help because he couldn't move and wasn't visible to other motorists, according to Uehara. He said most riders typically keep their phones in their backpack or have them mounted to bike.
The number of motorcyclists killed in crashes dropped to 4,985 in 2018, decreasing by 5%, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration , but motorcycle riders are still overrepresented in traffic fatalities.
