do they usually check your helmet at these places to make sure it’s sufficient?

I have a few helmets, but they’re all about 5 years old, and they say if you drop a helmet once, even from 2 or 3 feet off the ground, it’s no longer useful…apparently all good and legal helmets are made for a one time impact protection…and all of mine have been dropped at least once…
