Why do we wear helmets on bikes when so many more hit their heads when they are not on their bikes?

If one puts on a seat belt in a car, why do they not strap on a helmet as well?
Can anyone show me cyclists eat more pie than anyone else?
why do we put whicream on pie when so many more eat their pies when they are not on bikes?
are crust breakages to others any less severe that they need not take precautions and use pie tins?
If one puts on a pie tin in a car, why do they not box the pie as well?

You are now comparing pup-tents to skyscrapers....if anything cmopare it to a similar vehicle...a motorcycle or moped...both of which the riders, as a norm, WEAR HELMETS.
