Evaluation

Please briefly explain why your initiative is a good example of improving road safety.

The device that we have developed encourages (nudge) the use of safety measures (helmets) in order to improve road safety.
Motorcycle helmet use can lead to an estimated 42% reduction in risk for fatal injuries and a 69% reduction in risk for head injuries.
So even a small fraction of riders using a helmet can reduce significantly the fatal injuries saving lives.
