In most States people under the age of 18 are not mandated by law to wear a helmet while biking, and if there is a law that forces them to wear a helmet the legislative justification is some bullshit about the state being sued by parents or it "protects children from injury making America stronger" or some bullshit. In Canada it's simple, we don't allow minors to bike without a helmet for the reason that we actually care are fellow humans. U.S is actually a sick country.

That's a decent amount states with bike helmet laws.
>>128670399
Why don't you legislate a ban on everything that could conceivably hurt children - like muslims..
I couldn't imagine being so gay I cared about an issue like this
>>128670399
Man, bike helmets are fucking gay. If you aren't biking on a busy street or riding a fixie in traffic with you skirt blowing in the wind, it shouldn't be a law to wear a helmet.
>>128670399
I didn't wear a helmet and ended up just fine.Quit turning kids into wimps.
>>128670736
Yeah but many without it
>>128670819

How are they related?
>>128670399
It's retarded to require kids to wear helmets while cycling at all times. If you don't cycle near cars or on extreme terrain, you're gonna be fine, so it would just result in a ton of unnecessary fines and it would take up the time of the police.

If you did that in Canada you would be taken away from your parents, your parents would be charged and never allowed to be a mile within a school. And you'd be raised in a government run foster home. So take that
>>128671152
Yeah but you could always fall off your bike.
>>128671413
>fines
Maybe in your corrupt country where cops are after money. Canadian police aren't motivated by money since they already get enough money so fines aren't needed. They just charge the parents and take the children away
How many people actually get saved every year for this? frontal impact in bike are fucking rare.
Murica is a lot less dense (in most states) than other countries so there is a lot lower chance of getting injured by a car.
I ride my bike all over my small town school and athletic area and there's only ever 1 or 2 people there so I never need a helmet.

>taking kids away from a loving family is something to be proud of
I spent my entire childhood biking and never wore a helmet
>>128671604
>They just charge the parents and take the children away
That's even worse than a fine.
>>128671636
Even if one live gets saved its worth it
>>128671662
Doesn't matter, you could still fall off
>>128671666
>Loving family
