Would any cycle helmet have helped here?

Comfy armchair to one person & a plank to the next
I wasn't talking to you!
And thereby is illustrated the point that using "you" and "we" in group discussions is poor style, ambiguous and confusing :rofl:

Try to direct replies to points not prizes^Wpeople if you can.

Cycle helmets are useless, says brain surgeon

Should you wear a helmet when cycling?
As a leading surgeon suggests that bike helmets offer little to no protection, Andrew Critchlow gives a soldier's perspective on why protective measures are always worthwhile – even when the science is hazy

Question for Mugshot (just so we are all clear).

Why should I stop saying that my helmet has prevented injuries when I know with 100% certainty that it has? In this thread I have mentioned how it has protected me from injury on three separate occasions. I also described how my friend was similarly protected. I've never said that this means that you or anyone else that chooses not to wear a helmet is wrong or mistaken, quite the opposite. You asked me why I wear a helmet and I told you. This seems to have upset you so much, you have resorted to calling me a liar, saying that the incidents I experienced are "spurious". I respectfully ask that you withdraw that totally unfounded accusation.

A recreational cyclist riding to work?!
If I caught the bus instead would I be a recreational bus passenger?! Or walking a recreational pedestrian?

This thread has reached the final destination for helmet threads. You can't change someone's mind by shouting at them and mocking them. If you wish to discuss helmet usage please could you keep it more civil next time.
