Abstract

Indonesia is one of the countries with the most significant number of motorcycle users in Southeast Asia. Because of the heavy traffic and high price of cars, most Indonesians choose to use two-wheeled vehicles. The accidents in Klaten Regency in 2019 to early 2020 increased by 30% from 2018 and were dominated by teenage riders (16–25 years old), with one of the leading causes, driving behavior. This research aims to obtain the correlation between the characteristics of respondents and their practice in using helmets—only four characteristics from 9 characteristics related to the habit of using a helmet. One of the characteristics is the sanctions if the driver does not use the helmet correctly while driving. The results of the data analysis obtained no correlation between knowledge about helmets and the practice of helmet usage while driving. This research has never been done in detail by linking the respondent’s characteristics with the habit of respondents in using a helmet. Therefore, it is worth doing further research. This research applied to the proportion of respondents by 75% female & 25% male senior high school students in Klaten Regency.
