Missed this point...
I'm not arguing wearing a helmet isn't safer. Had I been I would have tried to present stats showing the added weight of a helmet makes you more likely to hit your head. Those stats exist by the way but I know THAT is a losing battle...
I simply said, while effectively hijacking the thread, that helmet laws are not an effective way to reduce cycling related head injuries.
