Helmet may actually have saved a life...

[Cyril Haearn]

Hi,

I am not so scared of dying
I am scared of surviving seriously injured and crippled, spending decades in care unable to communicate my wish to be put out of my misery

+1

Given that 60% of head injuries are alcohol related, and 34% from assaults....does the fear extend to going down to a city centre pub on a Saturday night


The fear of these injuries whilst cycling is irrational given the incidence

Thanks for the stats, just reduced my perceived risk by 93%
Saturday night beneath the plastic palm trees?*
Haven't been to a pub late at night (at all?) for decades, very rarely go out late
