Correct answer
No, because its structure could be damaged without this being noticeable externally.

Energy-absorbing material and other components may be damaged without visible external signs, reducing protection in another impact. Inspecting only the outer shell is insufficient. If unsure after a drop or impact, consult the instructions and manufacturer before reusing it.
