Thank you for posting this! I'm going to use it in my presentation on helmet safety that I'm developing!!

wow! another happy ending with a helmet. Do you suppose Jace (the little boy) will LOOK both ways next time?

There's no doubt helmets protect your head. I honestly can't see why some people have a problem wearing them. I just don't go on my bike without mine. My son also wears his as a matter of course.

I saw a young child riding his bike in our street tonight. He too was wearing a helmet. I saw the same child out a couple of weeks ago - no helmet. Maybe he's seen Ian and me wearing ours and now thinks it's grown-up and cool to wear a helmet;) :D

I know this is an old thread, but a college guy from madison, wisconsin was run over by a truck after he flipped over the front of his bike. The truck wheel rolled right over his head! The Giro helmet cracked, but saved his life. He had a concussion, but was otherwise fine. WOW!:eek:
