If you're cycling anywhere where you're depending on a painted line to keep you safe from tons of metal that's traveling much faster than you - then you'd better have a helmet on, at the minimum! I'd argue the same for stand-on electric scooters as well. Maybe what we need to normalize is always having a helmet with you.
It's sad we have to have laws to mandate such things, but here we are.

- taylodl 4y agoThat's the proper solution, but we may have problems implementing it in newer cities that were designed with cars in mind and don't have much in the way of public transportation outside of busses - in other words the U.S. South and the U.S. Midwest.
