Remember kids... always wear a helmet. (The almighty bikeradar helmet thread)

My evidence is that every impact I have experienced it is better to have something between you and the thing you hit. Obviously if the 'something' is designed for purpose and tough yet soft even better.

Helmets may not be designed for a 25 mph impact but every bit of relevant experience I have tells me that I'd rather be wearing a helmet of any type than not whatever the impact and whatever the helmet was designed for. I am happy to accept that the helmet might do little good in an impact it is not designed for but I am confident that sometimes it will do some good.

I there any research out there which proves that at 25mph and above a bike helmet does no good whatsoever? Any lab tests which show that at 25 mph it is utterly useless every single time?

Hold the fucking phone, people. Jeez has experience doing something!!

That's not evidence, and until you understand that the rest of the world sees evidence as something else, you are going to keep being the one who is wrong. Every fucking time.

We might as well throw out law courts and imprison people based on whichever detective has the most experience.

What a fucking joke.
