When I see someone riding without a helmet, I catch myself thinking,

Try not to strain yourself.

The vast majority of automobile fatalities are the result of the head injuries sustained in the accident. I trust you wear your helmet while driving along in your Volvo . . .

BTW, the majority of motorcyclists are aware of the risks, which is more than can be said of automobile drivers; automobile fatalities outnumber motorcycle fatalities 100 to 1.

Thanks for the concern.

Statistically, though, is the ratio of motorcycle riders to automobile riders - one to one hundred?

I would have to know that to see the implication of the statistic you quote.

Very nice chatting with you.
