If it meets DOT and ANSI standards both (that is, the most recent
set of ANSI standards), It's gonna do the best possible job.  Many
helmets meet only DOT standard.  This is still a pretty stiff
standard.  My NavaIntegral Nava2 is only DOT, though it meets
European standards that don't count in the US.  It used to meet ANSI
standard, but they upgraded the standard.  I got it because it was
the only helmet that was small enough for my head while still
allowing my rather large-framed glasses to fit inside comfortably.
I couldn't even get the glasses into the Bell helmet.  As I
understand it, Bell is about the best there is.  Whatever you get,
remember, spending $100.00 on a helmet may seem like a lot, but how
much is your head worth?
