A client could definitely recover damages if they’re involved in a bicycle accident and are not wearing a helmet, though it certainly is advisable to wear a helmet whenever you’re operating your bicycle. Not having a helmet on, although it may have an impact on the amount of damages that are recoverable, does not in any way preclude a client from bringing a claim.
