    I have little assurance in anything FMVSS certified. Motorcycle helmets with the DOT sticker(a legal requirement for on-road use in the US) are suppose to meet FMVSS 218.

    When the NHTSA did a random test 42% failed. How is that possible you might ask. They let the manufacturer conduct the testing and self-certify.
