Helmet Hazard
Laws are made to be broken etc. but some laws just make good sense. One of those good sense laws is that when you’re riding a motorbike you should wear a helmet. Why? Because bikes are fast, the ground is hard and your head is soft. All those things combined make it a darned sensible law. On top of that, recent research found that 73% of road users are total mongs and can’t be trusted to eat a biscuit, let alone drive a one tonne hunk of metal faster than a cheetah can run.
Mr Contos disagreed. The 55-year-old NY man was part of an anti-helmet demonstration in Onondaga. His thoughts were that you shouldn’t have to wear a helmet, it’s up to you to decide. OK, we’re all grown ups, maybe he has a point. But not for long. During the demo, he applied the brakes on his bike, the rear end fishtailed and he was flung over the handlebars and died from the resulting brain damage.
