Don't forget about pedestrians. Helmets are like avoiding ECC RAM, soon you are giving them out on every level of abstraction because you don't want to face the fact that the danger comes from cars/memory with bit errors.
Fix the problem, styrofoam will not save you.
- r00fus 9y agoPeds don't share roads like bikes. When I'm cruising on my road bike I'm literally feet away from cars while traveling at a decent clip like 15mph. Pedestrians are on a sidewalk often with parked cars between them and the threat of tons of steel at velocity. Scooters or anything going 15mph should not be on a sidewalk.
