And of that, how much was preventable - if only people would wear motorcycle 
helmets while driving? Or people falling in the bathtub. Better get into the 
market of "Tub Helmets" on the ground floor....
Point is, of that 40 bill, how much is *directly* related to persons not 
wearing helmets while cycling. This means: no neck injuries, since helmets 
don't protect the base of the skull or the C1 vertabra; no dental injuries, 
no nose injuries, no eye injuries, no jaw injuries - no facial injuries AT 
ALL, despite this range being the most common in cycling accidents, because 
helmets don't protect 'em either.
