It's finally played straight in ''VideoGame/PokemonSunAndMoon'', where the trainer's riding outfit for the various Poké-Ride mounts includes a helmet and safety pads, plus a life jacket for surfing mounts. Most later main-series games (excepting ''VideoGame/PokemonLetsGoPikachuAndLetsGoEevee'') have also continued to follow suit with at least helmets, but no life jackets. ''VideoGame/PokemonSwordAndShield'' even has customization options for the trainer's cycling outfit and helmet, and the Expansion Pass DLC includes a speed upgrade for the bike that also changes the standard helmet to a full-face one. Additionally, you now wear a helmet and protective gear whenever you ride your bike in the ''VideoGame/PokemonDiamondAndPearl'' remakes. ''VideoGame/PokemonScarletAndViolet'' went back to averting it, as your character doesn't have to wear a helmet when riding Koraidon or Miraidon.

Bizarrely enough, helmet use is exempt on scooters, possibly due to the low speed, although real life traffic law, especially in real-life Hong Kong, still enforces helmets on scooters.

He only puts on his helmet when his brakes break and a crash is imminent. After smashing a hole into the wall of the Turtles' lair, he's only mildly dizzy.

* Defied in Creator/RoaldDahl's childhood of the 1920s, in his autobiography ''Boy''. He describes riding his tricycle to kindergarten, in the middle of the road, with no adult present, taking corners on two wheels; certainly no helmets are mentioned. He adds that this was at a time when motor cars were rare. He also describes a significant memory of seeing and envying an older boy riding a bicycle, with his school cap (note: not a helmet) sitting jauntily on his head, and the boy's arms folded casually across his chest, instead of on the handlebars.

* Zigzagged in ''Literature/TheFamousFive'', who are frequent cyclists, albeit in an era when there was less traffic on the roads. No helmets are mentioned at all, but Julian is strict and pompous about their brakes being in good working order, especially in ''Five Get Into Trouble'' when he berates Richard for bad cycling practice. However, some of their habits are of questionable safety, such as having Timmy running alongside them, and carrying a passenger on one of their bikes.

* A lampshaded aversion in the ''Series/MurdochMysteries'' motorbike episode "Murdoch Rides Easy", as fits the period: When Julia considers getting a motorcycle, Murdoch warns her of how dangeroud motorcycles are and says riders should probably start wearing helmets (no motorcyclist in the episode has any sort of head protection beyond driving goggles). Julia retorts that falling off a motorcycle is no more dangerous than falling off a horse or a bicycle, and nobody thinks ''their'' riders need to wear helmets. Murdoch looks thoughtful about this but doesn't press the point.
