wouldnt the ratio (fatal accidents among all helmet worn accidents) stay constant regardless of the absolute number of the wearers?

At odd angles, the force is mostly deflected and any perpendicular forces that are created will be somewhat mitigated. I freakin hate helmets or anything on my head but when exceeding a certain speed, Id opt for wearing one. Thanks.

I’m kidding, of course. There’s usually no place to sit while you wait.
