Should be a big fat DOT right on the back

That aside though

Snelll rating \> DOT sticker

The dot sticker doesn’t really mean shit, the helmet doesn’t neccesarly have to pass any tests to get it.

> You might be surprised to learn that more than half of all helmets recently tested with the DOT sticker on them actually failed DOT’s lab tests.
