Did you know helmets only need to hold up to a 13 mph crash.

Unfortunately, that information completely out of context. Helmets are not "speed rated" and that is the figure used in the lab to create the sufficient amount of joules (energy) for testing purposes. Refer to FMVSS No. 218 for the complete testing criteria.

Are you an actuary or something?
