Abstract:

Use of DOT-compliant motorcycle helmets was 73.8 percent in 2023, not statistically different at the 0.05 level from 66.5 percent in 2022. The 2023 estimate is the highest ever recorded. The 2023 data collection occurred during the usual timeframe of early June, immediately following the Click It or Ticket campaign. There were 945 motorcyclists observed in the 2023 survey, a 1-percent increase from 934 motorcyclists in 2022. DOT-compliant helmet use among motorcyclists traveling in light traffic increased significantly from 35.5 percent in 2022 to 66.0 percent in 2023. Use of noncompliant motorcycle helmets among motorcyclists traveling in slow traffic decreased significantly from 16.9 percent in 2022 to 7.7 percent in 2023. Use of noncompliant motorcycle helmets among motorcyclists traveling in light traffic decreased significantly from 21.1 percent in 2022 to 7.8 percent in 2023.
