If wearing a helmet makes any sense, why don't they wear them in Holland or Denmark?
I googled "countries that make the most sense", and neither Holland nor Denmark came up. Wiki was of no help.
I'm wondering where your premise that the Dutch and Danes make sense comes from?
I know this Danish lady, Ethla, and she makes pretty good sense, but she's agoraphobic, so she wouldn't ride a bicycle lest she cross paths with another human. She is very much the type to wear a helmet in a car, though. Perhaps with a full, tinted face shield, as well.
Another Dane I know owes me 25 bucks, and he drinks too much, and he rarely makes sense regardless.
I know a couple hundred Dutch folk, and very few of them make sense. Flying Dutchman is apt for 90% of them. And if you get a Frisian amongst them, and he starts yammering in his native tongue, well you'll quickly be rethinking the helmet thing.
cheers,
