Are u kidding? to ride anything without a helmet is totally stupid. I am an inventor and own an Australian company called Voztec Helmets, most head trauma can occur with as little as a 10k per hour impact.
[Editor’s comment: here we see fear mongering motivated by commercial interests]
If u want people to die or end up vegetables then ban helmets. Cannot believe i am hearing this.
[Editor’s comment: did we say we wanted to ban helmets?]

Do you wear a helmet when in a car?
Don’t tell me that seat belts etc prevent head injuries. Far more people are admitted to hospital with head injuries from inside cars than from riding bikes.

[Editor’s comment: He did tell me after all. Noted that racing car drivers wear helmets, but not everyday drivers. Point made.]

So you don’t wear a helmet in a car? Then stop telling other people to wear helmets, otherwise you could be considered hypocritical.
BTW, there must be a lot of “totally stupid” people in the world, because most ppl in the world ride bikes without helmets.
