Bringing this thread back from the dead...
Do I wear my helmet all the time? well... mostly.
There are ocasions when I don't feel like wearing it. Trips less that a mile long to get some groceries are helmet-less, hat-less and glass-less. I just squint my eyes and go for it.
Then again, sometimes I put on my helmet when I am at least within ten feet from the bike.
Regarding the govi-men telling me that I got to wear one... they can tell me about it, ya know, freedom of speech and all; but it should be my business to take care of myself, it is not anyone else's business.
Why isn't there a law about riding boots? or riding gloves? because the govi-men don't give a rat's ass about your hand or foot; they wanna keep their road related death statistics in check. Why isn't there a full face helmet law for horse-back riding? or jogging? because who gives a shit? it is not a road related matter. And if the govi-men realy cared about the general public, then, why aren't there seatbelts on public buses, metros and trains?
Yep, I've got a BIG gas guzling SUV, and yes I know that my family is safer in it that if I had a small sedan. But that does not mean I will drive it recklessly. Nonetheless, I want to know that if get into a close encounter with a bimbo who is pulling out of Mickey-Dees, talking on the phone and passing the greaseburger to the butterball on the back seat, my family will have more protection all around on the BIG SUV.
Yes to helmet... No to helmet law..... long live anarchy!!!! :dinamo: :fans: unk: :shab1:
