I certainly agree that people should wear helmets if on a motorcycle. However, like many others here, I agree that it shouldn't be mandatory, just strongly recommended. I do support any law that protects other drivers or pedestrians though(DUI, speed limits, texting, etc).

people should be free to choose to wear a helmet or not to IMO but promoting "novelty" helmets is something i hate and you should not do something so uncaring as to suggest its a good idea for someone to wear "fake" safety equipt and risk thier lives.

there are so many idiots out there who actually think these helmets will protect them yet they may as well wear a baseball cap for all the protection these "novelty" helmets give them.

a novelty helmet cost the same as the average "real" helmet so why be stupid and buy something fake that will kill you.

just my 2 cents

ps- i have survived 7 bike crashes, 3 of them were scarey and in 4 cases the helmet was no longer usable afterwards

He was spamming for a novelty helmet site (I think) and has been dealt with. That aside I'm in total agreement regarding 'novelty' helmets.

Nice to see you keep getting back on.
