That has always bothered me also. A accident on a motorcycle is almost always more dangerous than an automobile, yet the car occupants are required to wear seat belts, but cyclist don't need to wear helmets!? Someone please explain this to me...

There is an arguement for automobile drivers wearing a seatbelt.
In a minor collision, the belt keeps the driver at the controls. In this way, the driver may regain control of the vehicle, preventing further damage. Note this reasoning does not apply to people on motorcycles, or auto passengers.
