Art2ro Posted November 2, 2011 Posted November 2, 2011 Helmet and other safety clothing laws? IMHO, they should have made it optional for adults when to wear and mandatory for minors and mandatory to wear helmets for all riders only when on the freeway!

MikeB Posted November 2, 2011 Posted November 2, 2011 I was wearing a helmet but because this was a motor scooter with a floor for feet, as opposed to pegs, my body was thrown against the instrumentation and I was kept inside the bike, I'm pretty sure that's what happened but the details are sketchy. If it had been a standard bike or cycle I think I would have been launched into the grill of the truck, as would have been any rider. Maybe under the tires and there would be no walking away from that. As bad as this is it could have been much worse ie, head or spinal cord injuries. I think I paid about 1300 for the helmet, looked cool but doubt it would have held up. Never saw it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
