Generally, I don't like wearing a helmet while riding a two wheeler. Even though it is safe to wear it, i feel it as a burden on my head and in this hot summer, helmet makes me uncomfortable- a lot of sweat in the scalp region.A new ordinance is passed. Now the two persons sitting on a bike have to wear helmet. I am thinking of going out in a car rather than on bike due to these restrictions. Do you like to wear helmet when riding a bike?

No, I never wear a helmet, when I drive a two wheeler. Even though it is cumpolsory in our state, I always ride without one. I hate wearing helmets. I know the helmet is there to save our lives, but I believe more in karma, and believe that whatever is supposed to happen will happen, and if I am supposed to die in a bike accident, it is going to happen, whether I am wearing a helmet or not.

I used to ride bike on the busy side road, I didn't think I had to wear a helmet but now the more I think about it, the more I think I should have, I think I would wear a helmet now if I ride bike again on the busy road.

No i don't wear helmet. I don't know how to ride bike so personally i don't ride it but when some one drive then i do ride and that time i don't wear helmet. I don't feel good to wear helmet as i feel it's heavy and i don't like to put any heavy things in my head and feel uncomfortable though we all should wear helmet for our own safety. Good day!
