People put helmets on for skiing and snowboarding, but not many think about it when they go sledding. On Monday, Feb. 4, Harborview Medical Center emergency physicians treated a 14-year-old who had collided with a moving car.

Beth Ebel, a UW Medicine pediatrician, gives advice on what parents and kids can do. Kelly Delahunty, a mom and registered nurse, explains why she's taught her daughters to wear helmets while sledding.
