A. Legal paternalism
Helmets help prevent brain damage in case of an accident.Do you know what medical personnel call motorcycle riders without helmets?Organ donors.Added: The most quoted reason is the cost to society of rescuing, treating, caring for, and rehabilitating riders gravely injured in motorcycle accidents. Most of this cost falls upon "society" in general since most persons injured in this fashion do not have the insurance (or inadequate insurance) to cover their medical expenses.
In my experience the best argument for a helmet law is that a motorcyclist involved in a collision without a helmet will sustain larger injuries. Therefore their medical care will be more expensive. Those expenses will be covered largely by raising insurance premiums or by taxes by way of medicare/medicaid.
their chances are better because its a car crash
Motorcyclists are about 28 times more likely to die in a motor vehicle accident compared to passenger car occupants. This increased risk is due to factors such as the lack of protection a motorcycle provides compared to a car, as well as the inherent instability of motorcycles.
Most football teams do not put the US Flag on their helmets. It is too likely to be damaged, scratched and dented, not a good sign of respect.

There is a bit of speculation on the meaning and purposes of the crest found on soldiers' helmets. They were likely a sign of rank, unit, or as decoration. Some researchers believer they were used only as display pieces in parades and celebrations, but not in battle.
Bike helmets with MIPS technology provide enhanced safety and protection by reducing rotational forces during impact, which can help prevent brain injuries. This technology can also improve overall helmet fit and comfort, making it more likely that cyclists will wear their helmets consistently.
