What kind of Americans we talking about?
in 2014 only 180 people died in bicycle accidents. while 3030 people died that year accidentally falling.so should we also wear helmets for walking, then?literally the only, and i mean the ONLY people in this country that wear helmets: first graders that got their first bike and learned yesterday, and sport bicyclists.
Stereotypical fatass, safety obsessed americans.
I mean I guess it's on you to doubt the safety of biking helmets. you can easily just stop riding a bike or negate that risk almost entirely with a helmet but you can't stop walking, idk why you would even bother mentioning it.
only a small minority bike to some extent daily
wearing a helmet is social Self Delete, from the age of 8 to like 50
Not wearing a helmet is actual Self Delete
Wherever Pie Crust got the idea that Americans are big in safety, I have no idea, safety is disregarded most of the time. Most ride without helmets, motorcycles are required to wear one however
idk i think it used to be only available on chrome
Emergency exits everywhere, firelanes everywhere, doors only open outwards in case of fire, defribrilaters everywhere, the list goes on and on.
i mean i don't rly wanna be that kinda guy but i was potentially saved from at least a more serious injury by wearing a helmet, i lost control of my bike and had a bit of a crash many years ago and i remember i bumped my head pretty hard on something during it and thankfully i was wearing my helmet so it didn't hurt so much, was still quite hurt everywhere else tho it wasn't so bad that i had to go to the hospital but still bad enough that there was a good amount of blood cus of a buncha scrapes luckily a woman was outside her house right across the street when it happened so she helped me and drove me back home (and i even remember one of her rly young kids saying so calmly "why is he bloody" like it was just an everyday thing to happen just thought that was a funny thing to include)but anyways well i mean i don't rly freak out or worry too much when i see someone biking without a helmet and i don't doubt that it's normal where ur from but they still nice things to have
