Abstract The main goal of this paper is to determine the differences regarding the head injury risk of a pedestrian in comparison with a cyclist which is not wearing a helmet. The secondary objective is to study the kinematics behavior for both pedestrian respectively the cyclist during the collision. In order to obtain accurate results, two crash-tests were performed using a dummy which had mounted a tri-axial accelerometer in the head. Using head acceleration values we were able to determine the head injury risk.
