One thing is certain, government can pass all the laws and regulations but they still can't fix STUPID.To that I say, what is your position on people doing recreational activities that break arms, legs, knees, cause concussions, etc. that leave them on disability and require medical assistance for the rest of their life? Add to this that many parents actively push their children into this lifetime of destruction and maiming activity. I know far more people with busted up bodies from sports activities than motorcyclists injured while riding.
I do wear a helmet but I'm glad it is by choice. I only wish that those that want to take away my right to do things look in their own backyard before they start judging and wanting to penalize me for the activities I choose to do.
