Safer by comparison would be a true full face. Less parts to fail in a time of need. The modular (flip ups) claim to have the same safety offerings but from all the things I have read the jury is still out on that one. The biggest advantage to modular helmets is that at a stop light you can flip the whole front of the helmet for more air to keep from suffocating and talk with your buddy without having to hollar over the jaw piece.
