Wait, hold on- at the risk of derailing the thread, are you saying bike helmets don’t make your safer? I’m not arguing, just honestly curious. I’m not a cyclist myself and know nothing about this. The NIH sure seems to think they help though?
Relevant pull quote:
Overall, helmets decrease the risk of head and brain injury by 65% to 88% and facial injury to the upper and mid face by 65%. Helmets are effective for cyclists of all ages and provide protection for all types of crashes whether or not a motor vehicle is involved.
