I cannot say this enough and I will never say this enough: Wear. Your. Gear!

Far too many people are riding their bikes with no helmets, half helmets, skull caps as well as various stages of gloves (without fingers, really?), jackets (yeah, that hoodie isn't going to do squat) and footwear (seriously, flip-flops/sandals?).
Proper gear is designed to save your life. Your helmet may not withstand a commercial vehicle rolling over it, but it will save your life in most situations.
Also, the guy's family has a GoFundMe page to pay for medical expenses. That guy needs to contact the helmet manufacturer and ask them to use him in marketing. Damn!
