Delaware’s Motor Cycle Helmet Law is again open
for debate. I believe that all motor
cycle riders and passengers be required to have a helmet when riding a motor
cycle. But the Libertarian in me, would
make wearing a helmet optional.
Insurance companies could have different rates for people who wear helmets and those
who do not.
The same should be true for motor vehicle seat
belts. They should be available to those
who want to use them, but it should not be illegal to not use them. Again, insurance companies could charge
different rates for those who use seat belts and those who do not. The police report for an accident usually
states if the parties in a car accident are wearing seat belts or in the case
of a motor cycle accident, It’s clear if the rider or passenger were wearing a
helmet or not.
It is time to get government out of our personal
lives, if people want to be stupid, the government cannot stop them. Fred Sponseller
