Riding without a bicycle helmet is just never a good idea, whether you’ve ever hit your head or not doesn’t factor into it :P

Sure, for a basic machine that allows for better than 20mph, or 35kph.
Trying to compare that to my phone is a false equivalency. Try trolling someone that hasn’t had both university level ethics courses, and university level debate courses that I fucking hated. The debate ones, not the ethics. Ethics I breezed through. Debate is some absolute bullshit because you have to entertain the viewpoint of liars, like you.

What makes you say that? Wearing a helmet is always recommended, since it provides protection against debilitating injuries whether the cyclist moves at 35km/h or is at a standstill. The basic risk of injury stems from being a mere participant in traffic, after all. Just like the basic risk of a debilitating defect in a piece of electronics that gets used every day stems from it getting used every day.
While I don’t understand how ethics figure into this, I’m glad that you understand how a debate works! I’ll graciously ignore the no doubt involuntary ad hominem (which you as an expert will know has no place in any kind of discussion) and will ask you to now employ the most useful technique you’ve likely learned in that course and rephrase the original point I made in a way that makes me go “Yep, that’s what I said!”, because from my point of view there must be some kind of misunderstanding. What (did you think) was I equating with what?
