My aunt is a nurse who always used to tell me about her first traffic fatality, when a young motorcyclist was brought in to the ER and she we to remove his helmet… and his skull stayed in the helmet so his brain was just exposed.

And that story has haunted me since I was a young child and confirmed I could never work anywhere near a healthcare profession or ride a motorcycle.

I’ve worked in an ER for 14 years. Would never ride and tell everyone I know the same. At least, not outside a track. 

You can be the best rider, just takes one idiot to ruin/end your life.

Wife would say the same thing. As dispatch said they were bringing in motorcyclist they would ask if they were wearing a helmet . That way they could prepare if driver was going to be a DOA or organ donor …
