Helmet Law
Recently( this week) big brother here in, backward Nebraska, upheld the mandatory helment law.
There reason was it saves lives but more so when a life threating injury occures and the injured person has no means of suport, or Insurance, ( yeah we have mandatory insurance law too) its the state that ends up footing the bill. Usually medicaid.
Yeah we have the mandatory seat belt law too, I always wear both, would be nice to ride once in awhile with out the helmet if I choose to do so.
What I have a real problem with is how they figure it cost the state money when the rider is killed?

****, I don't know... but it is constitutional. Long time ago it was challenged in CA, might have gone all the way to the SC, and upheld.

RE: Helmet Law
I hated the idea of wearing a helmet, but after I got my full face helmet I love it. Im in Texas and Ive passed the course that says im allowed to ride without one, but why? It protects, it knocks wind out of your face and keeps you warm in the winter along with blowing enough air inside of it with vents in the summer to keep you cool.

Problem is you don't always get killed, they arerefering tothe cost of fixing a broken leg and sending you home compared to having a brain dead vegatable in the hospital for the next 30 or 40 years, plus the income tax and welfare thing.
