Who agrees that there should be a law for cycle helmets on kids and adults? |
Most kids wont wear them above a certain age, because they feel stupid or nurdy. Not caring that a cycle helmet could save their lives, hard to force a kid to keep a helmet on once they are above a certain age. If it were law they all would (well most would). Half of the accidents wouldnt be so bad if a helmet was worn. Not sure how it would work as a law, fine the parents I guess, confiscate the bike..lol. Any ideas on this? I agree. Let's start a petition. hmmm, I thought it was a law in MD- albeit one of those ones no one enforces - that if you ride your bike in the street, you must have a helmet on. My daughter is 4 and pedals slower than Moses and she always has her helmet on. If parents would teach the importance of this and enforce it, then the cops wouldn't have to be bothered with raising our kids for us. Parents can confiscate the bikes just as easily and that doesn't cost other people more tax dollars. I don't think it's unreasonable that parents be aware of where their kids are and what they're doing. in this case the kids are right - above a certan age helmuts -are- stupid and nerdy. MYOB! KS ---18 and below have to wear a helmet. Adults are free to choose whether they want their brains splattered all over the pavement or not. Great huh? I don't know where you live but in Canada it's a law that everyone ridding a bicycle must wear a helmet ..the fine varies between cities according to bi-laws. In the city i live the fine is 150 dollars if your caught without a helmet. The police have a zero tolerance so people here allways wear their helmets. |
