because we hate helmets, not because we did research Actually, we did. From [0] (the link to the study itself is on that page too): > A recent Dutch study (2021) concludes that many people expect to make fewer bike rides when mandatory helmet laws are introduced. These findings suggest that such a law would have a negative effect both on bike usage and on public health in general. In addition to the standard arguments already posted here about safety in numbers, efficacy of a helmet, and infrastructure design, they also mention a few practical problems with helmets: - What to do with the helmet when you're not wearing it? A good helmet is too big to just store in a coat pocket or a handbag. - What to do if you lose your helmet or it gets stolen? How will you make it home then?
