Next thing you know they'll require seatbelts for motorcyclists.

And helmets for motorists.

And helmets for motorists.

Oddly enough, I have made the case for helmets on motorists in my battles with NannyNazis.

The single most common preventable injury in a wreck is related to the skull.

If the Bolsheviks really caaaarrred about saving lives they would pass a law mandating helmets especially since modern technology can produce a helmet which will enhance the Driver's ability to assess hazard with heads-up displays, audio speakers and etc.

Two problems are immediately apparent:

1.The driver is in violation of laws which forbid vehicle operators to obscure their face in Stop Light Camera jurisdictions

2.The uproar from hair stylists and fashion mavens would be an overwhelming defeat for the Mandate Mandarins amongst us.

"Helmet hair"is just too much of faux pas for this society to bear.

Best regards,
