There are many measures passed in order to protect the drivers of a variety of vehicles including automobiles, trucks, motorcycles, and scooters. Each driver needs a certain qualification or license. However, when it comes to the riders of two wheeled vehicles, such as bicycles, the really important laws seem to have become very relaxed. It has come to my attention that wearing a helmet while on these vehicles is optional for riders over the age of 18. I believe that helmet laws should be mandatory for everybody riding these vehicles regardless of age. Whether you are 15 or 50, you can still suffer serious head injuries or a fatality if you are not wearing a helmet on these vehicles.
