regulation. Most of it anyway. Unfortunately sometimes "dumb" people have to be told what to do for their own safety. And that of others. Like you said, no common sense. It would be fine with me that if these people who choose to ride without a helmet, were finacially secure enough to pay their own way if involved in a lengthy hospital stay. But we wind up paying for their "choice". So doesn't that give us a "choice" in the matter?

And that is just a matter of money. What of those they leave behind? And their own lives which hopefully will not end up in a wheelchair? Leaving them to wonder for the remainder of their years, "what would my life be if only I had.......".
