Keith, what's "not very long" in your book? I know in NC, seat belt laws went into effect in 1985. Helmet laws in my state even before then.Originally Posted by Keith Outten
Lighten up guys
Helmet laws haven't been around very long, the same is true for seat belts and a whole list of things that not to long ago didn't exist. We used to ride in the back of pickup trucks and I still ride my bicycle without a helmet which is pretty low risk considering lots of other activities like playing high school football.

"guy on the bike has no effect on you at all. I don't think we need more Government regulations."
Until said biker drops the bike and is taken to the emergency room to have his head put back together and the hospital finds out he has no health insurance and then charges it off to indigent care and we all end up paying because medical costs go up for those of us that were responsible by buying insurance and wearing helmets.

Can we not even have a funny photo thread without picking things apart and going at each other? Take it in the spirit in which it was posted, silly photos, not helmet laws, animal rights, or Darwin awards.
This is a textbook example of why threads end up getting locked or moderated.

I am offended that "herding" is misspelled

Kent,
My bicycle is a Schwinn Super Sport that I bought on my 16th birthday so its 48 years old if that helps to set my personal time line. I don't recall there being any bike helmets available in those days.
I don't remember when the motorcycle helmet laws went into effect in Virginia or seat belt laws but 30 years doesn't seem to be a long time to me these days, I have shoes that are older then that and I've owned a lot of new and used automobiles that didn't have seat belts
Anyone seen the graphic of the OSHA Cowboy? I'm just poking fun here don't take this seriously...

That is not amusing at all. There is no way to tell if the driver was wearing a seat belt or a helmet.

I guess I'm lucky to be alive. I rode in the back of the truck all the time when I was a kid. Now I ride my motorcycle without a helmet.
