I guess we were both lucky then (you more so than me, but thats just opinion at this point)! Risk compensation also applies to drunk drivers, but no one argues

I guess we were both lucky then (you more so than me, but thats just opinion at this point)! Risk compensation also applies to drunk drivers, but no one argues that driving drunk is just as risky as driving sober. Yes, it plays a part in the whole equation, but it doesnt necessarily discredit the theory! Just because other people take bigger risks while cycling with helmets on, doesnt mean that we should write off helmets. They can be very effective when combined safe cycling practices, and perhaps thats how that information can be made useful. 'you could think more deeply about an issue that is much more complicated than "it's bad to injure your head"' Are you about to argue that head injuries could be considered good? Please enlighten this simple thinker.
