Actually, in this case it was my wife. In that jurisdiction, helmet use is not enforced. We had stopped to buy a loaf of fresh bread and were only 2.5 miles from home. I was going to leave the helmet hanging on the left grip and she read me the riot act. A few minutes later another motorcycle running without lights came out of the dark while I was overtaking a slow car and I lowsided trying to avoid him.

Good grief. Stats always say that many accidents happen near home. Well, will you listen to your wife more, or wear your helmet from now on?
