Most of the time I always ride with my helmet. (esp as its required by law).
Occassionaly when I am running late - I just ride 3 minutes down the road to my ferry terminal - I dont stick on my helmet for this...
I have definately noticed that when I am riding without my helment - cars passing me give me a wider berth, or even ride slowly behind me until its very safe to pass,
when I have my helmet on - car's seem to give me less space???
what gives?
