I’m somewhat conflicted on this issue.

Like most, I don’t like overbearing nanny state restrictions on everything. But where do you draw the line?

I wear a helmet even in states where it is not mandatory. I also assume that every other vehicle out there is being driven by someone who is deaf, blind, drunk and texting and ride accordingly.

I’ve been riding for over 30 years and haven’t so much as dropped a bike. (Knock on wood). Stay safe, all.

I was the same way when I used to ride and I'm the same way with seat belts. These days I feel like I'm going to fall out of the car if I'm not wearing a belt.
