No matter how many safety precautions they take, motorcycle riders are still about 28 times more likely than a car passenger to die in a crash due to the prone nature of the rider. A company called Airbag Inside Sweden AB recently designed a prototype of a new form of outerwear that might make riding safer for motorcyclists. Despite looking like a regular pair of jeans, they’re lined with airbags that will be triggered if a rider falls off his bike. The jeans are tethered to the bike, so the trigger here is similar to the safety clip on a treadmill: pull the cord, and you’ll have a pair of inflated pants. The goal is to reduce lower-body impact for riders. We’ve had inflatable vests for riders for decades now, but no one has actually figured out how to make sense of lower-body protection yet. Until now, that is.
