I don’t currently own a bike, but when I get one I will wear a helmet. What shocks me is the amount of people I see not wearing helmets on motorcycles.

And then they drive like lunatics, weaving through traffic and taking to the shoulder.

I used to drive a vespa-style scooter. And wore a full-face motorcycle helmet with it. Always felt like a goober bc I didn’t have some hip retro open face scooter helmet while wearing aviators or something radical. But I got hit in the faceshield by enough rocks on the highway to put that concern to rest.
On my route to work, there was an immediate 90° right turn coming out of the highway tunnel. One day there was a layer of unswept construction gravel. Hit it going a normal 15-20mph on my basic turn and tires came out right from under me. Landed face first with my helmet’s face shield closed. Entire shield and side of helmet dragged about 5 feet, scraped and the shield’s hinge broke out of the side of the helmet. Never felt so happy to not have some hip cool helmet.

My buddy bought a scooter years ago to save on gas, wiped out a week in, and never rode it again.
