I think I know the answer but would value some opinions, are jet helmets safe enough to use on restricted 50cc scooter?

Yes I use them on my cruiser and classic bikes and really like the better vision you get with them,what I don't like is the insects that hit your face.

You can still die at 30mph just as you can at 100mph, the vehicle speed makes no odds really if you hit something solid

open helmet or not really depends on preference ...usually around town at 30mph or less if a bug hits you in the face its nowhere near as bad as a big bumblee at 70mph

i have a Shark Evo-one which I can wear as a jet around town to get some air, then visor down and jet style its ok up to 70mph ish, after that on colder days or motorway etc just close it up to full face mode.
