I don't think even Evel Knievel could make that jump on a rocket-powered bike. So.. passing a law requiring helmets also grants parents the superpowers they need to save themselves or their kids from reckless or distracted drivers? That's awesome. I want the power to grow into a giant like Apache Chief.Still, a few recalcitrant lawmakers continue to conjure images of Big Brother. They say parents should decide whether their children wear helmets.
Nice try. But parents can't protect themselves or their kids from reckless or distracted drivers. Wearing a helmet gives a biker a fighting chance to enjoy a longer, healthier life.
