Correct answer
- Aevita la abrasión de la cara y la cabeza al deslizarse por el pavimento.prevents grazes to the face and head when you slide along the road surface.
Explanation
As well as cushioning blows to the head, a full-face helmet protects the face and skull from grazes when you slide along the tarmac after a fall. It is not designed to protect the joints or the lower back: for that there are gloves, clothing with protectors and back protectors.
