      It says they used them, repaired them, used them again, improved them and kept using them until they were completely worn out, then recycled the metal because it was too valuable to throw away. Helmets were the most common piece of armour worn, because they protected the bit that isn't covered by your shield.

    Being Danish and growing up in the 80's using a bike to school and later work, we never used a helmet. So they are trying very hard to reverse some very ingrained habbits that most Danes have. I suppose humour might do it? But I have my doubts. We are a stubborn bunch.

      so if we would make helmets mandatory in The Netherlands we should start with preventing those types of incidents.
      showering while wearing a helmet and of course sleeping with a helmet on will save so much lives.
      and to make sure we all do that the cops have the right to make surprise visits while we shower and sleep.

      I'm not talking about the purpose of travel, but type of bicycle, and sportsbikes are obviously more dangerous, and you can also ride those through commuter traffic.
      But i'm not worried. The risk might be a tiny bit elevated in commuter traffic, but chances of death in the Netherlands by headtrauma while riding a bicycle is 0.00103% per year. These are the stats:
      Bicycle traffic: 1.03 per 100.000
      Non Bicycle traffic: 0.9 per 100.000
      Regular falls: 3.53 per 100.000
      You are way more likely to crack your skull going about your normal business. So why no helmet then?

    I've already lost 2 front teeth to not wearing a helmet. I don't even remember what happened. I hit my head very hard. I was 12 years old and on a bike path, alone. Also, I'm Danish.
    Having no sensation in your front teeth can be really annoying even 25 years later.. and it took 7 years to have something permanent in place since while you're still growing it's complicated.

      Almost same story. I was only 9 years old, I have slight sensation in 1 of my front teeth. But I can bite of ice and at this point I wouldn't know how to get through a summer with normal teeth.🤪
      I fractured my scull and was in hospital for an extended period. A girl in the same room, had an even bigger head trauma. I think she lost ability to talk and walk.

      No its not. Wtf are you on about mate. The helmet dont hinder anything, you can see, hear and move just as good as without one on.
      I seen plenty of people without helmet drive just as "wild" as tho with. Diffirence is if both drive the same, and get into an identical accident. The person with helmet proberly have less damage to there head. Which is the entire idea of using it clearly. It is not to drive crazier then you normally would without one on.
      Have save me twice so far getting hit by a car and just a "normal" crash. Both times i walk away with no damage , and my head hit the car twice. He thougt he could drive over for just recently red light from hes direction before us on bikes could start moving. And my crash was because a guy behind me hit my rare tire with hes front which made me lose control so i hit the sidewalk edge and made me crash. So hade nothing to do with me using the helmet that got me into either accidents.

      The Peltzman effect is a postulate that was introduced as an argument about the seatbelt mandate. It claims that when you introduce security measures, you're more likely to engage in risky behavior. It has been thoroughly debunked and been deemed completely and utterly inaccurate, since introducing seatbelts caused fatal accidents to lower by 50%. Also - bike helmets was found to reduce head injury by 48%, serious head injury by 60%, traumatic brain injury by 53%, face injury by 23%, and the total number of killed or seriously injured cyclists by 34%.
