Helmet laws suck?

On another note,make sure your friend takes that helmet back to where he bought it with a copy of the police report because Sparx will replace it. I believe the dealer should do the work,otherwise if he gets a hold of Sparx they'll take care of it.

But' I do believe helmet laws suck! I do not ride without a bonnet, but I don't want the state telling me what I have to wear.
Let those who don't wear helmets cull the heard!

Agreed. An individuals personal responsibility to keep themself safe is NOT the duty of the government. I am against helmet laws... I am against seatbelt laws... I am against laws banning trans fats. People should take care of themselves... their failure to do so is NOT an excuse to give the government more power.

My stance exactly.

Any law undermining common sense and self-preservation leads to laws like the trans fat one... Don't worry though, that's certainly not the end of it.

DAMN!! So glad he's alright.... stories like this are a great illustration on WHY we should always wear our gear (for those who haven't yet gotten it through their heads!)

Had I not been wearing my helmet 2 weeks ago when i went down I might not bee hear either. I'll have to gt pics of the Shoei up. It took it really well and I hardly felt a thing when it happened.

helmets save lives, but then you think of the morons who don't wear helmets and do you really care either way?
