Yet Another Tragic Case......
"Short Wave Sportfishing" wrote in message ... Why do mandatory bicycle helmet laws exist? Largely, because of head injuries. So, assuming that is true, then how does that not also apply to motorcycles? It would seem to me that if head injuries on bicycles (max speeds - 15/17 mph) occur from low speed impacts, then they would also occurr in higher speed accidents involving motorcycles. Do bicycle helmet laws apply to adults? Also, I think those laws are set by the town you are in, not the Fed or state. I don't want to argue the injury issue, but data indicates, including the report I cited, that although a motorcycle helmet lessens the chance of severe head injury, that advantage is offset by an increased chance of neck/spine injury due to whiplash. So, choose your method. Eisboch Eisboch |

Let's see who raises their hand and admits to being a complete idiot. |
