I wear a helmet while riding mostly out of habit. But I doubt I am meaningfully improving my safety by wearing a helmet on pathways.
I had a crash a few weeks ago. My head hit the ground (helmet). Not sure I would have avoided a head injury if I didnt have one on.

No, I don't wear a helmet when I walk. Great question though.
