Recently, the Traffic Management Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security issued a notice that from June 1st, 2020, the safety guard operation named "One Helmet and One Belt" will be carried out across the country.
 Drivers and riders taking motorcycles and electric bicycles without wearing helmets, and those taking cars without fastening seat belts will be punished in accordance with the law.



A policeman from the Municipal Traffic Management Bureau said that according to the "Wenzhou Regualtions on Promotion of Civilized Behaviors", anyone driving an electric bicycle without wearing a safety helmet (electric bicycle belongs to a non-motorized vehicle), will be imposed a warning or a fine of more than 5 yuan but less than 50 yuan. At present, the traffic police will issue a warning for the first seizure on the behavior "driving an electric bicycle without wearing a safety helmet" in their daily handling; a fine of 20 yuan will be imposed for the second seizure; and a fine of 30 to 50 yuan will be imposed for three or more seizures. If any refusal of accepting the fine takes place on site, the public security traffic police will detain the vehicle in accordance with the law.

The importance of wearing a helmet

The relevant research results show when an accident occurs, the riding helmet can absorb most of the impact force, play a protective role in cushioning and shock absorption, and can reduce the proportion of injured people by 70% and the mortality rate by 40%. From the head injury rate, the person who does not wear a helmet is 2.5 times more than that of wearing a helmet. And from the fatal injury rate, the person who does not wear a helmet is 1.5 times more than that of wearing a helmet.
