In choosing what type of helmet to buy (and wear) - full face, open face, half helmet (aka brain bucket, beanie, etc,), you might want to consider this -

The numbers are a very good reason to wear a full face helmet.

Must have been a lot of crashes for figures that precise

The info appears to be from Germany so they could be monitoring several countries. No matter how you slice it a full face or modular is the only way to ride. I would hate to mess up my hard earned unshaven look doing a face plant.

Yes, those chin hits seem to be the most common. I have a nice Vega modular full face for late Fall, Winter and early Spring but you just can't wear it here in the summer as it's too darn hot. I wear a 3/4 with shield during the summer.
