Are people riding motorcycles with no helmet actually a problem?

yeah I should get over it hey… my superior DNA just feels left out sometimes…

Those of us with brains should stop supporting those without…. I mean yeah it means we could lose ‘valuable’ football players and various others but hey…. evolution will finally follow the better path and intamellect will become attractive to the opposite sex…. which means I will pull more women because I’m not competing with some 10 ft tall muscle bound throwback… I have some deep insecurities don’t I??

Good post Thumper…

You know I dont follow conventional ethics. I say that there are enough people out there who are sick enough of the situation that would agree that it’s tough, but if the family has the resources to allow their child out on a trail bike at odarkhundred, then the bill should be passed to them for the rehabilitation of said person.

If they can’t manage that, sorry – you should have thought about it eh ?

There are 2 obvious benefits from my strategm.

1. Gene pool purity
2. Dumb people who allow this to occur will lose personal resources caring for injured member, thereby won’t be able to afford said trailbike in future, or extended care for member. Go to 1.

Maybe (just maybe) if we introduced a system whereby a rider can drink his/her choice of alcohol through a pump/mouthpiece in the helmet – it will a) reduce the number of people not wearing helmets b) create revenue through the consequent dui’s

hmm, perhaps we could introduce legislation that if you’re not wearing a helmet then you’re not covered by public hospital cover…

User pays in action…

well – we pay for their hodpital stays…
And possibly to support their family if they had one.
You could say the same thing about seatbelts really, but that seems oldfashioned now.

I agree.
