Exactly. You have 20 years experience. The blue hair you mention has even more experience. So much for that. But the teenager on a crotch rocket or Ninja does not have experience or maturity to ride without a helmet. Kids on those bikes do stupid things and theres a lot of em. Its a rarity to see one being operated safely. Not all riders are the same, and not all are mature. I would think immature stupidity causes more fatalities than old ladies running red lights. Only an idiot would operate any motorcycle without a helmet and especially a Ninja or a crotch rocket. People that support the repeal need to consider all factors and not just insurance costs or statistics. You all think it wont happen to you. Much like the smoker who puffs for years and then dies of cancer.

If you had an accident with a biker not wearing a helmet and that person died, regardless of whos at fault, you get to re-live that accident over and over for the rest of your life. Suppose it's you that gets killed, is your family OK with the fact that you were too cool to wear a helmet and now your dumb and dead? Weather or not you died as a result of head injuries everybody that knew you is going to say "He should have been wearing a helmet". Get real man.
