If you don’t mind getting your jaw broke in a crash, wear less than a full face helmet. I broke my jaw once in a car accident, and would prefer to not break it again.
This is the best article I have seen about helmet design, and much of this info was used to improve the Snell 2010 helmet standard, so it is much safer than the Snell 2005 helmet standard:
