Have fun with "theoretically" b/c TRUTHFULLY that will not happen. It has been proven. This isn't a perfect world and never will be.
As nice as it is to worry about others and their safety, there's way too many people in this world for you to worry about. So why not just worry about yourself. |
I generally worry about too much stuff hehe
well I guess I'm just very much in favour of making people wear helmets and seatbelts, because I've heard a lot in favour of those things - I mean the most recent one was a friend telling that his close friend got hit by a truck on a highway, driving a sports bike.. and he actually hit the side of the truck with his head plus the helmet, and that helmet was the only thing that saved him |

| Sportsbikes are basically suicide machines with a timer. Except you don't know when your time is up. |

In response to the seat belt wearing law:
It has been proven that a person not wearing a seat belt can be dangerous to other people in both the same vehicle, and any other involved in an accident.
When you are driving 70km/h and at impact get stopped to 0... the bodies are still moving at that speed. Without a seat belt, you have a body projecting at an alarming speed that can seriously harm another person.
Helmets on bicycles, I agree should be the choice of the person riding the bike. This is something that I really believe can ONLY harm the rider, and if they want to be an idiot and ride unprotected, go ahead.
Whenever it comes to the safety of others though, I think laws should be enforced. I don't want to die because some can't be bothered to put his seat belt on, or because someone was too busy ing with their MP3 player.
It isn't just about the person who chose not to wear the seat belt or whatever, it is about everyone else that could be potentially involved. |

Well said. Laws should protect innocent people from others, not people from themselves. |

Suicycle is my preferred term, but dude they're the best things ever. Anybody that doesn't wear a helmet on a sportbike is a stupid squid anyway.
Here are my current 2-wheeled lust objects. Street fighter style is so awesome.
