A helmet only kicks in when you crash, so the use-or-not-use decision involves a calculation (inexact at best) as to the liklihood of losing control of one's destiny . Riding like a racer thru rush hour traffic in an urban area seems less controllable than puttering down a country lane. As with many cycling decisions, it's situational.
