Re: That's all very well....
Also need to know about scooter users' helmet and drug use when they didn't have accidents, or did have an accident but weren't badly hurt.
I don't really expect to find that everyone on two little wheels is high, but it's possible. Also possible that helmets don't help as much as you'd think, although I wear one to cycle. One theory is that they make your head a bigger target and so it's more likely to be hit hard by the ground.
An anecdotal favourable estimate of a helmet's utility is that it prevents half of possible fatal head injuries, and none of equally likely fatal elsewhere-on-body injuries, so cuts death risk by 25%. So wear one but also ride slowly and safely as conditions indicate.
