Why wear helmets?

Why wear a helmet? 
That's what a lot of people keep asking me.  We drive safely, don't over speed and  follow the traffic rules. Besides helmets prevent us from hearing well, as well as diminish our vision. 
Well,  it may be doing some things like that but still helmets protect you from accidents- things that happen even if you are following all the traffic rules. 
The gentleman shown below was a victim of a traffic accident. he suffered  a severe scalp injury - the ear has been badly damaged , the cartilage of the ear is all crushed up, the scalp skin is lost and the skull bones have been exposed. He underwent extensive plastic surgery and had some form and balance restored. The first stage of surgery has been shown in the picture below.




This young unfortunate child was hit by the glass of the windshield which resulted in multiple injuries


So do drive safely, follow the traffic rules and have a nice day!!!!
