The level of helmet usage covering all types of motorised two-wheeler riders plying on 15 road sections spread over the National Capital Territory (NCT) of Delhi has been evaluated wherein the data collected on an expressway, arterial, sub-arterial and collector streets were analysed. This encompassed Delhi-Noida Freeway (DND) which falls under the urban expressway category, five numbers of arterial roads namely, Dr. Hedgewar Marg, Signature Bridge, Peeragarhi, Vikas Marg (at Nirman Vihar Intersection) and Noida Link Road, seven numbers of sub-arterial roads constituting Dr Zakir Hussain Marg, Rao Tula Ram Marg, Africa Avenue, Kasturba Gandhi Marg, Vandematram Marg, Kingway Camp and Bhishma Pitah Marg, two numbers of Collector Street namely, Greater Kailash and Dr M.C Davar Marg. Using the above data, Binary Logistic Regression Model was formulated in SPSS software. The output deduced from the above analysis revealed two possible outcomes namely, Helmet “Not worn or unstrapped” or “Worn and Strapped” covering the Driver, Pillion Rider or at times even the second Pillion Rider sits violating the Motor Vehicle Act on Indian roads. The results deduced for the varying functional classification of the roads revealed that the helmet “Worn and Strapped” behaviour in Driver, Passenger 1 and Passenger 2 is the highest on the expressway by clocking 98.4, 89.4 and 53.9% followed by Sub-arterial road users by measuring 77.95, 72.3 and 27.7%, Arterial Roads registering 73.0, 68.5 and 13.1%, and lastly Collector Road users registering 65.82, 44.3 and 3.2% respectively.
