If states enforce seatbelt laws, then helmet laws should follow suit IMHO, or do away with both. People know the effects of smoking and continue to do so, people also know what can happen in a car accident to the human body......having a choice should be the standard. Most would still wear seatbelts regardless of the laws, but helmet usage would be less I have no doubt. I have really changed my views on things in the last year, if people want to be stupid.....let them. We are losing too many of our choices and rights as things are now, we do not need more of a police state
than we currently have.
