Cite Winning Design Dr. Patricia A. Nolan, Rhode Island Director of Health, and other bicycle safety leaders will honor the student winner of a statewide bike safety campaign. Local police will award shirts to youngsters who are wearing a helmet while riding their bicycles. Rhode Island's bicycle helmet law requires all bicyclists 15 years of age and younger to wear a helmet when riding a bike.
Helmets save lives and prevent injuries.
They will also communi-cate the message to young bikers that wearing helmets is not only safe, but cool. The media are invited to attend this recognition event.
