He ignores everything, including the fact that most head injuries are 
suffered by auto passengers.  I asked him at least 4 times why he didn't wear 
a helmet in the car, and each time he completely ignored it.
If motorists aren't required to wear helmets, then neither should bicyclists 
be required to wear them.  You don't give up your right to personal choice 
the minute you step outside of the gas guzzler.
