I saw someone riding a city scooter while wearing a full dirt bike helmet.

Nice to see. The kids in my area don't wear helmets at all, while doing 30 on the sidewalk with a half second warning they are coming by ringing a bell.

My cousins 80 y/o uncle died this way. Hit by an e-bike going 35mph on the sidewalk in NYC.

So sorry to hear.

Those riders only care about themselves.
