Sounds fair to me. The helmet restrictions were rarely enforced so big deal if they are removed.
I do love how we stress safety in lobbying for the lane-splitting law yet still allow people to ride without helmet. :skep: Quote:

Wow, I wonder if the TX training infrastructure can deal with a mandatory training requirement. That'd be... interesting.

Actually, SB1967 does not actually remove medical $$$ restrictions for going lidless, but instead you would have to have a special designation on your insurance card verifying that your insurance company will indeed cover you if you are in an accident and are lidless. I was told the reason this was written into the bill was because not all insurance companies will cover medical if you ride lidless. Some people found out the hard way.

It looks like SB506 is 99.9% dead. There's a small but unlikely chance it will be attached to another bill.

Wow, so the mandatory training (among other things) bill made it through?

Looks like it allows bikes to use HOV lanes also:
