My mother had two hövding (as mentioned in this thread). The fist one was bought as a gift to my father and therefore a larger size than would have been reccomended for my mother. The company said it would be fine but efter it going of two times where there were no accidents she had enough.
Apperenly the larger size combined with the bumpy road of my hometown made the helmet jump around her neck, recognizing it as an accident and opening up. When the helmet opened it had spun around and thus opened in her face, blocking all her vision. Which, it has to be said, is not really ideal when riding a bicycle...
