Adamz and Mad. Read the first post in the other thread as to where this idea started.
It is a bit worrying how so many just assume that if we did not wear helmet on pushies there would be dead people everywhere.
Other parts of the world do not enforce helmets and they don't have dead people everywhere.
Prior to Australia enforcing helmets the only helmets I had ever seen were at a velodrome. There were not dead people everywhere.
Australia is really becoming a nanny state and it is becoming more and more obvious how it is happening.
It appears that many here are very uncomfortable with the concept of free will, making their own decissions and not being told what to do.
It is no business of any of you what I do with my life as it is not my business what you do.
There is a lot of anger that I am questioning something with quite a few rather nasty responses.
When you are out riding your pushy do you wear heavy protective armour and boots like that worn by most motorcyclists?
Or does your helmet protect your entire body?
Is that your choice? Or do you only wear what you are told to by law?
