A false sense of security is the only possible danger I can see from wearing a helmet. What I don't like is a government
saying 'We have this law to protect you against your own bad decisions, but it's okay, it's for your own good.' Maybe
the decision the law makes for you is a good one, but it sets a precedent for another law that may also be a good decision. The two examples I'm thinking of are; wear your seatbelt and wear a helmet. The problem is by the time a stupid law is made, there are too many precedents for it and we're stuck with it. I can make my own good decisions, and if I make bad ones, I will live, or die, by them.
