True but that's just because they haven't gotten caught (no revenue in that, apparently)

Bullshit, we have people that have multiple DUIs, DWIs and have a general inability to drive. Most people on the road today are too busy doing anything BUT driving while behind the wheel. But, because they have a slim method of keeping it somewhat in their own lane they get away with it. Hell, they get away with murder on a regular basis with four words ["I never saw him"]

I wasn't disagreeing with you. I was saying that they haven't gotten caught because there's not enough revenue in it.

The reason helmets are law is because the insurance companies lobby for it. Pretty simple.

if it saves them money then why not. Probl3em is more peopel get hurt due to head injuries the ins co will have to shell out more cash, and in a lot of cases it can be a lot of cash. So they will raise everyone elses rates to compensate.

Alas, what price, freedom?

Communism can be pretty cheap, but you have to stand in line for toilet paper...
