GRSP | Session 61 | 8-12 May 2017

24. GRSP noted the summary report (GRSP-61-31) of the regional workshop on motorcycle helmets organized by the UNECE secretariat in Malaysia on 7 April 2017 to promote safety of two-wheeler riders.

25. The expert from IMMA remarked that crash situations in which two-wheelers are involved are quite complex and that the lack of data does not help to clarify dynamics. However, he stated the support of his organization on any activity of the secretariat to improve Powered Two Wheeler (PTW) safety.
