Let's ban motorized transportation altogether & save 40,000 lives a year.

I kid you not there's a family that I pass on the way to work on occasion who drive around in an old beatup blue suburban.
Everyone sitting in the car is wearing a helmet every time I see them.

If the insurance lobby is against it, I'm usually for it. Damn ninnies.

I'll never understand why all these perpetual mommies persist with this assault on Freedom. Riders are adults that should be left alone to make their own choices. Their is zero justification for their butting in. What's the point in spending all that money and effort on education if they're going to make all the decisions for you anyway?

"Everyone sitting in the car is wearing a helmet every time I see them. "They started with seat belts, then progressed to auto loading sholder belts, air bags and tickets for not wearing them. Helmets will come in due time, just like they are with pedal bikes. Might as well live in a friggin' nursey school with perky mamma Liddy Dole running the motivation sessions.

Lol! I agree. But I'm telling you you've never seen anything funnier than a family of four riding around with helmets on. It's hilarious.

I think everyone should have the freedom to wear a lid if they want to.

I had a cousin who's husband got his head run over by a car and he had a helmet on...it was bad, like a watermelon.

This isn't just a problem with the motorcycle crowd. I ride horses, and compete long distance. I have a feeling before long it will be mandatory that if you compete you have to wear a helmet. Right now it's a choice but at every competition the judge asks me "where's your helmet?" I say when I HAVE to wear one I'll quit competing. Some how I don't think that helps my score much:)
I also got hollered at last year by some old man in spandex while I was riding a bicycle to put a helmet on. If he hadn't flown by so fast I would have knocked him over.
I'm not wearing helmets on motorcycles, horses, or bikes. Not gonna do it.

Looks like the AAA is just looking out for the wallets of cagers that cause accidents. If they weren't at fault there'd be no cause for the claims.
