This has to do with the topic but it sure as hell scares me.

I ride DH so I wear a fullface helmet pretty often. Any way, on the way to the DH track I was wearing my fullface helmet and WAS riding on the road. Well a cop asked me to stop and when I asked why, he said something like, "that helmet your wearing is dangerous as it wrap all the way around your hed and lowers your peripheral vision." I said that it is exactly like a MX helmet therefore gives me more protection, the way it's designed I don't loose any peripheral vision and lastly I can see better out of this helmet than most people on motor bikes. He then said that he didn't care and that I was in the wrong and told me not to do it again or I could get fined (which I highly doubt is possible).

This really scares me as a cop actually said it was dangerous I was wearing a helmet.

BTW I still wear this helmet anyway without any other problems.
