I have been in two car crashes and have never bumped my head and my wife has been in three car crashes and has bumped her head pretty hard each time.

I would also like to have a full face helmet for bike riding. The last bike crash that I had, I was sliding along on my face and had to tilt my head down to get the helmet between me and the asphalt. If I had been using a full face helmet maybe my nose and sun glasses wouldn't have taken so much abuse. Does anyone make a full face helmet for bike riding that is light weight?
