Helmets - mean time betweef failures

That all depends on whether you believe helmets do the job they claim.

Consider: the chances of having an accident on a bicycle are about the
same as those of having an accident as a pedestrian. Out of all those
accidents approximately one percent involve a head injury. That's a
pretty low risk and for many people hardly worth taking measures
against.

Add in that helmets have had no credible research to back their claims
and many people treat helmet wearing as an inconvenience which must be
complied with to statisfy the law of the land.


For those who buy in to the exaggerated dangers of cycling without a
helmet maybe?

They had plain helmets, the Kaiser's soldiers had the spikey ones.
