So if whites were ticketed more for wearing helmets that would be perfectly fine? I don't like this newspeak. I suppose there is this ideal ticketing distribution we are not told of that would keep the law on the books?
I am pro helmet, but anti-nanny laws. I don't wear my helmet when I'm making a local trip to the grocery, but will on longer varied rides. God help me if I were ticketed for not wearing a helmet. I ski too... and don't wear a helmet... I'm not a maniac on the slopes. My 2 cents.
- 1shooner 4y agoI think the point is that for average, white, middle-class people, the helmet is part of the little bike hobby kit you keep in your garage, but in reality there are many people perhaps more economically and legally vulnerable that have a greater need to ride a bike and less convenient access to safety equipment.
