What an absolute moron. May he RIP. I was telling a friend today - even if there were NO helmet laws in our state, I'd still wear one. I've dropped a bike several times. Flesh/bone meeting asphalt - no fun.

Has anyone considered that we could raise the national I.Q. average if we didn't have so many laws protecting people from their own stupidity?

Yeah..but they don't all die.

Some become crippled. Then it gets expensive.

Well, it wouldn't if we didn't think we all have to pay for someone else's stupidity. I'll pay for mine. You pay for yours. Seems reasonable.

Let the insurance companies police the use of helmets (and seatbelts).
