Getting head...protection. How to stay safe?

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

Half-face helmets are just stupid, don't protect your face or the side of your head, where a huge percentage of injuries occur.

The helmet should be a little tight when you buy it, the padding will compress slowly to fit you.
Here's a compromise if you dont like full face, but they're not cheap.

There are a few a good that sell Thai and Japanese helmets near O'Russey Market. From Monivong BLVD, walk towards the market, pass it, and there are the shops about a block past (same side of the street). One shop has the helmets displayed in a glass case out front, but the better ones on the walls inside. That place is best.
