[QUOTE="Smit-Dog, post: 681071, member: 25436"] If the AMA took a pro-helmet law stance, I'd think that there'd be outcry from it's members who equate riding without a helmet to a god-given freedom or right. It'd be unpopular, at least initially, but I think it'd be the right thing to do. Fine, choose to ride without a helmet. But when what could have been a simple case of road rash turns you into a tube-fed, cathetered vegetable costing a gazillion dollars in lifelong medical bills, who ends up bearing the cost? Do you think incidents like DUIs and deaths/injuries of helmet-less riders would go down if insurance companies started denying coverage in these cases? Maybe you can't legistlate common sense, but you can *influence* the choices people make by hitting them in the pocketbook. Freedom of choice works both ways - you don't want to wear a helmet - great! But we choose not to insure you. [/QUOTE]
