ADDITIONAL RESOURCES The Vermont Bicycle & Pedestrian Coalition www.vtbikeped.org National Highway Traffic Safety Administration http://www.nhtsa.gov/ D ata from the YRBS indicates that some simple safety measures are not commonly used among youth in our region. Fifty-nine percent of teens in Grand Isle County never wear a helmet while riding a bicycle. These numbers rise to 69% in Franklin County and some towns are as high as 81%. Head injury is the leading cause of death in bicycle crashes. Helmets have been proven 85-88% effective at reducing the impact of head and brain injury and saving lives. Teens also continue to be injured, some fatally, while riding ATV’s without helmets. Another area of concern is the lack of seat belt use with only 53-56% of teens reporting they always wear their seat belt. Our region has a way to go to reach the Healthy Vermonters 2010 statewide goal of increasing consistent seat belt use to 92%. 36 Image: Ian Kahn / FreeDigitalPhotos.net
R E L A T I O N S H I P S A N D P E R S O N A L S A F E T Y 37 I t’s an adolescent’s job to become more independent of parents and family. Teens naturally reach out to peers and other adults for perspectives and help. They will encounter many influences and experience new kinds of relationships, with friends, with strangers, and with boyfriends and girlfriends. Not every action or decision will be perfect. Teens learn from mistakes. In the pages that follow, we describe the ways in which some relationships can become destructive and put an adolescent’s safety at risk. Although it is important for teens to separate from their parents, they still need to have strong relationships with family. Disagreements are natural. It’s important that both teen and parent understand that. Yet, there can be times when communication seems impossible. At such times, it is a relief both to parent and teen to know the teen can turn to other trusted adults. It is good to include such people in the life of your family before a crisis occurs.
