A Sikh cyclist who slid under a car in a serious collision said he believes his turban ‘saved his life’ by protecting his head.
Jagdeep Singh, 44, who has 35 years of experience, had been cycling with a friend along a country road when they turned down a steep hill towards a blind corner.
New research conducted by the Imperial College, London, and the Sikh Scientists Network has revealed that Sikh turbans significantly reduce the risk of skull fractures, especially in areas covered with a thick layer of fabric.
Turbans can be as effective or better than cycling helmets at protecting against some head injuries, experts have found.
