TAC Urges Motorcycle Riders To Consider ‘CRASH’ Helmet Safety Ratings

Victoria’s Transport Accident Commission (TAC) is urging motorcycle riders to consider safety ratings on helmets before purchase.

The TAC is now on board with CRASH - the Consumer Rating and Assessment of Safety Helmets - which tests new helmets and rates them for both safety and comfort.

Using a 5-star system similar to ANCAP vehicle safety testing, CRASH rates full-face, open-face and dual-purpose helmets before posting the results on its website.
