    Yes, I am all-for helmet use. But let's consider another possibility , a protective shield for the handlebars, made of plastic, which could prevent injuries. It could look like a motorcycle windshield, also known as an aerodynamic fairing. The protective shield could be padded with a huge amount of polystyrene foam (a.k.a. Styrofoam), and could have a carry-all compartment , so it functions as an handlebar basket.
    I got one for my bike, and I believe it has saved my life , or prevented serious injury, at least once. Google "Fiberglass Ladies Bicycle" for more information.

    P.S. In the past, I may have said it would take a tool known as a "mold" to cast the plastic into the proper shape (something resembling a Motorcycle Windshield). I wish to recant that statement, and say instead that the item could be produced by a 3D Printer.
