    One way to make sure more people wear helmets is make it law.

    It is here

    So even people who feel it is uncool to wear helmets do, because they have the excuse of "the law".

    Because so many wear helmets, others who mightn't do

    Its an exponential thing...


    Courage does not always roar. Sometimes, it is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying,
    "I will try again tomorrow".

    Well its the law in California too but that doesn't force them to wear one.

    And if you are over 18, its not mandatory for bicycle. I see lot of people without one.

    "Don't ya messin' with my hair! B**** " and other excuses. I should start handing out business card with "Congratulations, you've just been nominated for the Darwin Award. Please collect your trophy (headstone) upon checking into the ER"

    Tuck, apparently Arkansas has no helmet law. Here's a map of the states with full and partial helmet laws.
