Speaking from experience, helmets are a good idea if you plan on crashing.
On the other hand, helmets that are strong enough to reduce the severity of a head injury are also the ones more likely to contribute to a crash, as they tend to interfere with seeing and hearing what it going on around you. There’s also risk compensation to consider - riders wearing helmets tend to take more risks than riders who don’t.
