Answer:

Yes, bicycle helmets should be mandated. Bicycles though they are easy to ride are dangerous and there is always a risk of crashing. Additionally, drivers are careless so no matter how much someone is a pro rider a reckless driver can hit them in an instant. 97% of people who died riding a bicycle were not wearing a helmet.
