That is most definately where a helmet is most likely to save your life. Most accidents happens at intersections where someone either turns infront of the bike, or just goes thru the intersection and runs the bike over.
I wear my helmet all of time, even in the summer. I figure if its too hot to wear my helmet, its just too hot to ride anyway.
I have 2 very strict rules for myself when riding, first one is wear my helmet 100% of the time, or dont ride. Second one is, absolutely no alcohol when I ride.
