Well this is certainly dark.
My take, when seat belts were made mandatory lots of people fused and cussed. I never wore a seatbelt. The car I was driving at the time did not even have a seat belt.
I am also a pilot at the time. Now I would have never considered getting into the airplane without strapping in. I mean tight. Nothing like coming off the seat and banging your head on the door pillar.
So when seat belts became mandatory I had no excuse, but to strap in. Same with motorcycle helmets. There is just no good excuse to not wear a helmet. My take is if you do not wear a helmet you are a selfish narcissist. You increase everyone's insurance costs, you clog up the courts with lawsuits, you may leave loved one's behind. You "it's my right not to wear a helmet" is just a stupid argument. Now if you want to ban motorcycles your going to to get my guns first.
