Not wearing a helmet on a bike isn't that unreasonable though. I've seen studies that show a positive relation between a cyclist wearing protective gear and cars driving more aggressively around them. So you might actually be less likely to have an accident than when wearing safety gear, since the vast majority are caused by car drivers.
