than why> With Helmets I figure if someone doesn't have the brain to use one
If they wrote a law saying that you don't need to wear a helmet, but that by going without you agree to waive any right to publicly funded health care, ambulance service, etc., then I'd support it and would probably ride without one for short trips on hot days.

No, I think it should be like the way insurance premiums are linked to whether-or-not you smoke. Helmet wearer rate or non-helmet wearer rate.

I like that too, if it was high enough premium. That way the brain dead (but HELMET FREE!) wouldn't just be left at the side of the road...But of course they wouldn't have the money to pay, so my plan would have to take over eventually. Could that idea be extended to Harley riders with skid lids? Oh wait, I don't mean to pick on Harleys, I meant "riders of large V-twin cruisers with defiant antisocial characteristics including scorn for helmet laws."

I agree, that would smell really bad after a while.>I like that too, if it was high enough premium. That way the brain dead >(but HELMET FREE!) wouldn't just be left at the side of the road... >
Is this the same as the "fiberglass yarmulke", AKA "novelty helmet"? In NYC we get as many guys on pimped-out ZX-9s with those things, as Harley guys.>But of >course they wouldn't have the money to pay, so my plan would have to take >over eventually. > >Could that idea be extended to Harley riders with skid lids? >
Don't joke around, those are the hardest bunch of accountants, chiropractors, and dentists you'll see anywhere. Unless you mean the actual Hells Angels, they have a chapter in Manhattan. Unlike the suburban cruiser guys trolling the village with earsplitting open pipes, they seem to have other things to occupy their time. -- Devon Brooklyn, NY A15-Z '01 KLR650 '81 SR500 cafe racer "The truth's not too popular these days....."
