So Arnie took to Melbourne streets after the F1 on a share bike, shock horror, helmetless. Now they are asking if he should be charged for the offence based on pics sent to the media. It kinda highlights some of the issues regarding helmet laws. Got to say, regardless of my profession's opinion, mandatory helmet laws are bullshit. Kids, yes, everyone else - optional. You won't catch me without one, but it would be a lot better for all of us if more people rode and this is just one example of what happens when you try to enforce something that has borderline logic behind it. If cyclists on shared paths have to wear helmets, so should walkers. No helmet is a lot safer than one hanging on your bars.
