The best protection against traumatic brain injury is to avoid dangerous, uncontrollable situations at work, during everyday activities and in your free time (e.g. alcohol and driving). Adequate protective gear (such as a helmet when cycling or skiing) is also capable of reducing the extent of traumatic brain injury. A cycle helmet reduces the risk of suffering traumatic brain injury by approximately 60 %. Furthermore, safety systems such as airbags and seatbelts play an important role.
