What would you do?

LOL... that day will never come.. .not in our lifetimes. I'm not much of a betting man, but I'd put up $1,000 against your $100 that helmets will not be used (certainly not required) for any enclosed automobile driven in the US or Canada within the next 10 years. Make it 15 years if you think you'll still be on the forum by then.

With the seat belt requirement and proliferation of air bags in every corner, I don't see helmets being required in automobiles. On top of that, I don't know many women that would be willing to muss their hair styles every time the wanted to go somewhere.

I take my helmet with me when I go flying. I had a forced landing / crash about 20 yrs ago where it would have come in handy. Got a concussion and about 60 stitches in my forehead. Now I keep it behind my seat, just in case.
