    It probably works better than dashing your brains out across three metres of pavement, which is the apparent game plan of most of the people I see on scooters and bikes around town

      Hi, I’m people. This product addresses 99% of my problem with helmets. I could finally maybe be trusted with an e-bike to get to work regularly, versus just blocking traffic(read: using the side-walk wherever possible because no-one walks in this town anywnys) with my mountain-bike when my car isn’t working.

      Weird to get the concept of speed-increases-danger, I know.

      Can’t believe you got downvoted for being absolutely right. I don’t remember the last time I saw a bike helmet in use, save by a person whose entire wardrobe wasn’t screaming “I bike in racing gear as a personality traight”. So … one-in-ten bikers around here.

        I 100% do not care about the downvotes. Those people don’t even value their own brains, why should I?

        Anyway, hope you get a helmet. 🙂

          You’re not getting downvoted by the anti-helmet crowd, promise. You’re getting downvoted for the same reason I’ll ever tell my kids to shut-up; Being right doesn’t mean you have to be loud and obnoxious.

            Was aiming for funny, so I’ll take that note. I think I’d be a lot less of a scold if all the people without helmets didn’t smirk when they saw me ride. I’ll own up to that.

              Oh, it WAS funny. I wasn’t one of the downvotes. You didn’t have to be loud and obnoxious, but I appreciate you for taking those downvotes, and painting a concise picture.
