I don’t use ear plugs on my commute it’s only 20 minutes and the maximum speed limit is 50 mph. For riding at 70 plus mph ear plugs are a must I have a BMW system 5 helmet which they claim has a noise level of 80dB at 60 mph and this is one of the better ones. To expose your self to 80 to 100dB of noise for a prolonged period is seriously going to damage your hearing. The message is simple get plugs.
