Evaluation

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

For mjam safety is of the utmost importance. Wearing a helmet is compulsory for all mjam riders even though Austrian law does not require people above the age of 12 to wear a helmet while bike riding. Furthermore, mjam riders receive safety training on a regular basis. mjam provides them with a bicycle workshop in Vienna. In the future riders will also receive free repair work and advice in the mjam workshop from the mjam mechatronics engineer. Mjam is already working on co-operations with bike workshops in other federal states in Austria.
