50 State Helmet Law Review

[FRXMAS]

Hrk, You Read My Mind. No Helmet,no Brainer.shorts And Sandals Are Asking For Permanent Scars,but If They Aren't Wearing A Helmet It Probably Won't Matter. I Guess It Comes Down To Whether You Need A Brain In The First Place.my Viewpoint On "macho" Regardless Of Sex Is Based On What I See And Hear At Every Event I Attend.women That Choose A Biker's Lifestyle Seem To Automatically Lose Their Femininty And Develope A Less Ladylike Behavior, Therefore The Appearance Of "macho". The Inconsiderate "macho" Biker That Rolls The Dice By Drinking And Riding Because That Is His Mindset Only Hurts Everyone Else That Rides And Quite Often Pays For It With His Life And Sometimes The Lives Of Others. Being A Man Has A Great Deal More To With Responsibility Than With False Bravado. I Don't Intend To Judge Anyone. I Just Am Stating My Observations As To The Behavior Of Others In Regards To Riding A Motorcycle.

50 State Helmet Law Review

I can see up to 18 wearing a Helmet but I do think as an adult we all should have the choice whether to wear a helmet or not. But like Oregon, my state we had a two term governor that was a doctor who refused to sign the bill before him that would have changed it to under 18.

The only reason my friend who was severely injured last year in Wyoming stopped to put on her helmet was she started getting a wobble in the front. Course after she put on her helmet and just before getting to the next HD shop the whole front end of her Ultra came apart throwing her from the bike. Yep, she had, had her bike worked on at another HD shop in ID just before that.
