Scooters Wouldn’t Be So Dangerous If You Just Wore a Helmet (citylab.com)

Stop trying to just convince people to wear helmets because safety, it's not going to happen.

Instead, make affordable helmets not look ridiculous. I'm wearing a helmet (while biking), but I totally understand why people that are fitted with more vanity have a hard time, especially kids who are even more pressured to fit in.

Solve that, please. Explaining it will increase adoption rates as much as it has ended smoking, poor diets and sedentary lifestyle.
