I'm always amazed how many people dont wear a helmet when cycling, even though £12 can save you from at best an instant death at worst serious brain damage ..

I was knocked off my bike 7 years ago . fortunately i was wearing a helmet which took the full brunt of me landing on my head . The cycle helmet split in 2 . i would never consider cycling with out one.

My theory is that those who argue against safety headwear have already taken a few solid blows to the head.

Sorry but these helmet debates make me laugh. I had a car drive into the back of my bike and knock me about ten feet forward, the bike flipped and I bounced along the floor around another six feet hitting my head all the time. Then a bus drove over the top of me, but that's neither here nor there.

The thing was I was wearing a good bike helmet. My head wasn't damaged. So I put that down to the helmet and nothing else.

Funnily enough I was lit up like a Xmas tree, two lights front and back, one steady one flashing. Hi viz jacket, white helmet, etc. And passing a lit up bus. The driver that hit me claimed all sorts including my lights were off and he just didn't see me. And the police accepted that.

My advice is, get a helmet. Put the odds in your favour. :smiley:

no evidence that helmets help much

they probably cause more accidents by restricting vision & people fiddling with them ie lifting one hand off the steering wheel

​Your bicycle has a steering wheel? I think that's a car you're in control of at that point :smile:

I thought wearing a helmet out​ can cause blindness not brain damage! (sorry)

"I'm always amazed how many people dont wear a helmet when cycling, even though £12 can save you from at best an instant death at worst serious brain damage"

You would be also 'amazed' at the lack of evidence supporting your assertion.

While helmet only protects a small part of your body it does so reasonably well. There may not be evidence that it makes a difference in serious traffic collisions. That's because in such cases it probably doesn't. Protecting your head while sustaining major neck injury is unlikely to save your life in such case. But in minor collisions and support related accidents helmets make a big difference. These sort of accidents don't make it into the statistics.

it's the riders choice, it seems to be the local chavs who ride without helmets round my way, hopefully improve the gene pool , the end of the day if you crash and hit your head on something I personally would prefer to have a helmet on than not , and imho parents should provide young children with helmets (kids skull are soft)

Just remember any compo payment for injury will ask was a helmet worn, and the payout will be significantly lower if no helmet was worn.

​Not necessarily true. If the Claimant seeks legal advice and instructs an expert that can demonstrate that the helmet would not have made a material difference in this particular case compensation may not be affected.
Helmets unfortunately can never protect the brain from high speed impact injury. Physics and anatomy see to that. They were only designed to reduce superficial head injury in low speed events.
So best to wear them if you wish to reduce risk of cranio facial scarring or potential secondary brain injury after skull fracture e.g extra dural haematoma.

Agree with a broken arm but a Head injury no helmet can reduce a comp payment by upto 80%

I would like it to be compulsory for people under 16, to have to wear a helmet on a bicycle.
Some of the comments above are verging on the idiotic.
