Here in SoCal. PCA Zone8 will allow Snell M2000 (motorcycle) helmets for Auto-X but not for D.E. If you already own a Snell M2000 you can use it here. If you are shopping for a new one get the SA2005 rating.

We all hope that we will never crash but the reality is sometimes it does happen. I was in a 993 this year when a 914 made an error and spun right in front of me at about 60mph. We were about 1 car length from impact. If/when I do bump into something I want to know that my head and face are well protected.
