I don't see myself has having any more of a sense of security because I have a helmet on.

I think of my cycling risk like this:
- if I am riding in traffic, I risk making a mistake and causing myself to crash, or I make a mistake and a car hits me, or the driver makes a mistake and hits me. I think getting hit by a car would most likely result in broken bones in my arms legs

- if I am riding on the trail, my risk of crashing is mostly due to me making a mistake

I would also say I wear a helmet to minimize my risk of having an accident that would change me forever versus dealing with a broken leg or something that will mostly likely heal in a couple of months.
