A further 28 helmets have been tested by the UK Government’s SHARP scheme, bringing the total tested up to 247. Road Safety Minister Mike Penning said "I would urge anyone thinking about buying a new helmet ahead of the weekend to check out the SHARP website before making their decision. A well fitted helmet with a high SHARP rating will provide you with the best possible protection in the event of an accident so it's well worth checking the advice on the site before you buy."
