The House Bill proposes cyclists over the age of 21 can legally ride without wearing a helmet as long as they carry a $20,000 medical insurance policy. The Senate Bill also allows motorcycle operators to ride without a helmet as long as they have passed a motorcycle safety course or had a motorcycle endorsement on their driver’s license for 2 years.

So you mean that I'll be able to ride an R1 in Michigan, if I have a safety course??
What BS is this? No training in the world can guarantee total fatality protection.

Heck, even Indians are more safer when it comes to Sbk's.

Out of 10-11 guys I saw riding Sbk's, all were properly knitted & helmeted except for one!

People you know are like kids, be it India or USA. The traffic policemen have to think of their safety because they won't think themselves.
Laws must not be softened just because citizens want so.

Maybe they have a population problem.

This is one of the many evidence that supports the great scientific theory "DUMBTARDS exist everywhere"

Few days ago I had heard another such "Mahaan" intellect and Medical Doctor proposing His great theory Helmets = Safety = Rash riding = Accidents .: Helmets should be banned!

I think this law is not about safety, its about providing freedom to people and let them choose. The society or the govt should not burden a individual on doing something which it does not wants. It should encourage but no need of fines for not wearing a helmet.

How about freedom to drink and drive or take drugs? Make them legal too?

There are some things that the government must enforce for our collective good.

Anyways, no sane guy will want the "freedom" to ride without helmets.

chest/back protectors are equally important as helmets.
not all motorcycle fatalities are head injuries.

no one's doing anything about that.

allowing that can hurt more than one person.
ie: people/bystanders not involved in the decision to drink&drive/do drugs etc.

while... not wearing a helmet only hurts one person.
ie: the person who decides that he doesn't need to wear a helmet.

like only allowing the manufacturing of bikes that can't go faster than the speed limit?
