There is one thing the helmetless do not know.... YOUR HEALTH INSURANCE WILL NOT COVER YOU!!! YOUR MOTORCYCLE INSURANCE WILL NOT COVER YOU!
If you go and read the fine print of your health insurance... (yes I know its worse than reading War & Peace) you will eventually find a clause that exempts the ins co from paying out ANY medical expenses on any head injury that occurs while driving a motorcycle or ATV without a helmet....
NO HELMET = NO COVERAGE!!

And there we have what it all boils down to!
On the flip side of that coin, I've often wondered has anyone ever been in an accident and had their helmet on, saving their brain, only to have a severe neck injury due to the added weight of the helmet? Wouldn't that be ironic?
